I'm making use of my Bluetooth headphones & watching emmerdale on app on my phone while dc watch their cartoons on tv
Unfortunately it'll be a boring weekend for them as I'm still suffering with bug, I can feel my insides gurgle as I type. They love pj days though so should be alright. I'll take them to community games tomo no matter what.

still trying to catch up

fabulous quilt

I know i have missed loads and i'm sorry working weeks are crazy for me especially as i've been back at the gym.

£65 in aldi today, £15 butchers, £10.84 at co-op but only 84p cash
Town later for trainers, birthday pressie and fidget spinner

oh also had to say to creme - that's shit and no wonder you are fuming.

meadow sorry to hear about your grandad. mixed emotions are totally understandable

Life what are you missing I'll see if we have them. We're still in need of these.... (I was going to pm you as not frugal related but can't add photos on pm)

Sorry you're not too well mammy. Hope you feel better soon.

It's been raining all morning and yesterday's lovely weather is a distant memory. I'm kind of regretting inviting DD's friends for the day/sleepover but it's done now and DD will really enjoy it. You have to make an extra effort with an only child. I know she gets a bit bored sometimes with me and DH.

Anyway, we've been to the shop and stocked up for the day. We're having chicken fajitas for dinner as I know they'll all eat it and it's kind of healthy (well, healthier than pizza and chips).

Having a quick cuppa now and then I'll make a list of things to do and get moving.

Quilt is amazing & lonely you're so different to how I pictured you

Thanks tayto fajitas are a great dinner, they can eat as much or as little as they want with no pressure

Got into eaves of shed to see kittens

Awww!

Also I love the quilt!

I'm missing 31, 43, 70x2. I'm promise them from the swapsies thread. Thanks though

We just went to our library for a story telling event, and ds starred in a play. He was really excited. Definite advantage of now being the big boy at such events.

Dh has gone on a car shopping adventure and tells me that he has now bought the car.

Ah, that's lovely to hear about DS and his excitement Sunny. Congrats. on the new car also.

Wreck I can send you loads of them. Will pm you the ones I have

Well that was expensive - 54 trainers x 2 for dc and had a £7 off voucher, £10 running socks, 21 superdrug, 86p boyes, "0 figit spinners.

Our thunder storm is just arriving as i type.

DC want pizza hut take out for tea so about 15 there

£25 for pizza hut. Ffs. It's not even that good. That's me buying a new bread maker for home made pizza.

PH is really expensive for what it is, isn't it? We have it quite often really (they do gluten free pizza so DH can have it). The only other takeaway we get is Chinese which is better value really. Caglets won't eat Indian or anything else though.

Did you know they were there Mammy?? Very cute!

Been into town this morning;

Spends,

£2 on the lego card collector book thingy, dd also now obsessed
£10 gift for dn
£10 gift for sil
£12 Primark on a beach towel and some jeggings for dd
£6 on 3 plants

£35 Lidls on food to take with us.

Have made a start on packing but got a bit bored still need to empty the car and tidy up - ugh.

Dh has come home with a £20k car. The boots is now full of small children. Dh is pleased with the car, which is good, because he never even asks for Christmas or birthday presents for himself. I am feeling slightly light-headed, which is only proper for a die-hard frugaleer in such a situation.

I want Chinese.

A lie down in a darkened room after that sunny.

That's exactly what's needed Life.

Yes girlie I did but hadn't seen them in almost 3 weeks since mamacat brought them up there

I cooked spuds,bacon & cabbage for everyone - i don't like any of these things but it smells amazing (haven't kept anything in since wed eve/thurs morn)
I'm gone to bed for the night least it's this weekend & not next weekend when we're away

Scrabbling to catch up, feeling discombobulated 🙄
Girlie my insurance broker wrote to me saying my premium had gone up from £258 to £310 😱. I went online (moneysavingexpert.com) and got a quote of £191 so phoned up the broker who matched it. I wasn't impressed but happy that it's cheaper than last year. I did the same site for house insurance and got that for 30% less than DH forked out last year with Saga who he insisted on going with, much to my annoyance).
When he phoned Saga to cancel dd and they wanted to know who we'd gone with - AA Insurance- he refused to tell them saying he was fed up with being offered matched quotes, why didn't they just give a sensible quote at renewal?
Feeling quietly smug 🙃

Don't worry about trying to keep up p1nk. We can certainly chat. Just post about what you are doing if you want without feeling you have to comment on the rest of us.

Pink Do not worry about keeping up. I'm always up for frugal tips & questions.

£16 TVs cables but one going back so I'll get £8 back.
£3 Leffe but shopmium will give me £1.50 back.
