Routine

I always buy a supermarket gift card when TopCashBack has their bonus deal. This time it was a £2 bonus as usual but the minimum spend has gone up to £10. Still very worthwhile to me, so, done deal this week. I did also go to Food Club, an exercise becoming ever-more tedious because the prices have gone up, so the saving is lower. We did stay for lunch. 

I need to move more. I'm getting stiff and sore just sitting for a couple of hours on the sofa. Not to mention it's now pretty uncomfortable since its last repair (the first few times I replaced the support strapping, but that keeps failing within weeks, so I gave up and hammered wooden slats across instead). It sure isn't the sofa's fault that I'm unfit, though. 😳 I need to actually get off my butt. Little X could do with the air, sun and stimulation, too.

The mailbox is still remarkably empty. It feels odd not to have the banks really demanding their money. It means I just twiddle my thumbs until each Universal Credit pay day. That's the day I dole out the money (admittedly there are not very many bills to pay anymore) and otherwise my most productive money thoughts are "imagine if I did X" and "I need to buy bread and milk soon". 🤔 

I have two offers from German Supermarket: spend £25 to get £5 off (I need to do this by tomorrow) and a second one for a free fiver if I spend £30. Unfortunately they can't be combined. I'm definitely going to struggle to actually do the second one, I'd end up either buying junk or buying rarely-used items I could get from Food Club for much cheaper. 🤔 The big-ticket items are robot lawnmowers and picnic benches, so that's a no, thank you. I'll have to think about it.
