That's about it I think...Oh I've updated my diary on here and put some money on the electricity. £20 instead of £30 so will see how long that'll last...

Checked internet banking, Pigsback and Quidco
Posted off 2 more Ebay sales
Bought 2 for 1 vouchers for National Trust from Ebay - they were in Daily Telegraph this weekend but parents only told me today they want to go to Beatrix Potter's cottage today (we're off to the Lakes this weekend) - only £2.50 for 2 though including postage and will still save lots of money!
Added more to Tesco shop - parents are paying for Lakes cottage if me and OH pay for food/drinks and petrol
Packed lunch at work, and packed snacks as well.
Tonight will look through CDs and DVDs for Ebay as those seem to earn most money!0 -
Evening all, hope everyone has had a great day so far.
Candy hope you feel less stressed soon and feel back on top of things.
Claireabelle, with your story regarding the spending diary it makes me think maybe i should start one!!
Cleosmum, well done on all the walking, sounds like you'll be super fit in no time.

Well, i ended up falling asleep so my productive evening hasn't really got off very well. Am still really tired after my course, not exactly looking forward to working all day tomorrow, however i have been told i can either do it as overtime or take time off in leu which is quite tempting. Am now busy writing up my mammoth mystery shopping reports, however don't seem to be able to find many more as all has gone quiet on that front.:j Live on £4500, £2531/£4500:T 101 in 1001 (52/101):j:beer::j
