Updates

Nothing very revealing or need to know this morning.

It's half term, kids off. Hubby (to be called H from hereon because hubby sounds naff) has taken the week off too, I have to go to work. I am relieved from all mad morning child/dog/lunchbox orientated rush duties. They have plans up to and including Wednesday. That's nice.

It will give me time to throw some more stuff on ebay, as payday is end of the month for many people anything listed for 10 days this week will hopefully appeal to the cash-laiden buyers :)

I have some decent cashback tracked amounts heading my way before the end of the year.
Top Cashback £184.45
Quidco £55.50
I think I may put half of that to EF. There are only two pay days til Christmas, add one son's birthday aswell, I have to be good. No choice.

Also registered on another survey site YouGov. Every little bit helps.

Happy Monday all.

A Day Off

I love Thursdays, it's my day off ! Before when I ran my own business I forgot the pleasure of not having to be anywhere at a certain time to do a certain thing. I guess I was always working.

Of course it won't be a leisurely day lunching and wallowing in selfish activities, I'll see the children to school, walk the dog - he likes Thursdays too because it means he can actually stop and sniff a little longer, rather than 'sniff on the go') and then become a domestic goddess ! Hubby will be back at lunchtime so this morning I am going flyladying . If the sun appears I may even treat the car to a wash and polish up with my trusty microfibre cloth. I live such an exciting life.

Talking of the car, I woke up yesterday and made a decision on the insurance. Went to the Prudential via Top Cashback, bought a policy for £184.80 and am awaiting cashback of £95 ! Policy started as soon as I purchased it online. I await the documentation. That's that saga over for another year. So just the tax to pay now, and of course that dropped on the mat yesterday morning, £99.

Had a few more surveys through, one I particularly like is Home Of Research (not an affiliate link) I've earnt £5.00 in the last 2 weeks, interesting surveys. Pay by paypal too.

Today is going to be a good day.

Savings

Not successful ! Can't find a quidco or cashback offer for a savings account. So gone with a simple Natwest E-Savings account, only because it's instant access, nice interest rate and they've been consistent with with me since 1985, worst thing that can happen is they refuse due to my horrendous financial history, but would they do that on a savings account ?
