Afternoon Mizmir..you're shopping sounds good..thats a good discount...well done on the list.
just waiting for the delivery to see what the final bill will be but am hoping there is at least a tenner in offers as well as the £12 from the code. Love the codes on here - only just discovered them - duh! - but am saving loads!0 -

I agree, i too am going to have a bonanza listing on tuesday as well!Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?
Still lurking around with a hope of some salvation:cool:0 -
:mad: Shopping arrived and Mr T had rejected the code. Can't really dispute it as they would ask where it came from and I don't think MSE is an acceptable answer :rolleyes:.
So didn't get my £12 discount but did get over £10 off through offers. Not as good as I thought but could've been worse I guess.0 -
Not much progress tonight but have at least sorted the spreadsheets!

- [strike]Update budgets and spreadsheets for July[/strike] DONE - and scarily heavily spent by this early point in the month! :eek: Will be storecupboards later I think....
- [strike]Work out meal plan for next week[/strike] DONE - with lots to carry forward to next week.
- Book tickets and do expense forms for work
- Prepare list of bookies to do
- [strike]Do the Skybet tennis offer[/strike] DONE - coming out with £26.67 profit - not great on a £50 freebet but with the limited markets, low liquidity and shifting odds I thought I would not be greedy...!

and get on with the indoor stuff as well. Also have some householdy things to do - loads of washing, dishwasher to fill etc. Plenty to do!
