Well it is 11am and by now I would usually be out and about spending, but instead I am at home about to clean house...I may treat myself to popping out to the little shop and getting a bar of choc as a reward, but we'll see.

So far, zilch! Hurrah! :T

Yay - just found a pound under the sofa, so can treat myself to a bar of choc and put the change in change pot!

I haven't spent anything yet but just psyching myself up to go to Tesco...don't need much because we are off on holiday on Friday so need to use up the stuff in the fridge that will go off.

I spent £8.40 for me and the Mr's cold medicine, we've been hit hard here with some kind of virus!

I gave the lad at Sainsbury's a £20 at 9am this morning, and he gave me £11 in one pound coins.

I was a little miffed, I wanted to add something to my £2 coin club collection :rotfl:

I have spent £42.00 in Asda,£12.89 in lidl and I needed some makeup,so I spent £15.00 in boots on no7 makeup,I had a voucher for 250 extra points if you purchased £15.00 of any no7 products and I also got the free bag of goodies worth £33.00 + the £5.00 off voucher for spending over £10.00,so I used that to buy some ROC face wipes (5.99) so I only paid 99p,I am going to sit down and have a coffee,I feel I really need one.

Just popped out to the local shop today for a few bits and pieces. Spent a total of £7.28 on milk, bread, some fruit, teabags and so on plus a packet of scones.

Scones are good…they make me happy, especially with lots of proper, real butter on them.

I’ve tried making my own but they turn out like Army biscuits – how bad is that! - lol.

I've been to Sainsburys and done a huge shop because my top-up shops have been running away with me lately.

I was aiming for just over £50 (which is higher than normal) so picked up a lot of things to stock up - like the buy 2 deals on washing tabs and domestos - realised 3/4 way round shop that actually hitting £50 wasn't going to be hard after all...

I think the end spend was about £63, which was brought down with coupons to a slightly more manageable £56ish. I can still feel good that I bought hardly anything I don't need and wasn't frivolous - though I am really looking forward to the gorgeous looking fresh tuna steak tonight

Quite an expensive day today:

£6.25 on bits of uniform for DS1 (who's 'lost' his PE kit!)
£3.43 on cards/wrapping paper for nephew's birthday
£19.96 on nephew's b'day pressie
£10 on 2 pairs of pyjamas for DS1 (who is growing at a rate of knots!!) These were on offer at Woolies (1/2 price)
£10 on 2 Herbie DVDs for DS1
£3.99 on 'named' mug for DS2
£19.98 in NEXT for DS2 (but this was his b'day money - so not from our budget)
£5 on sausage rolls/cakes from bakery (naughty but nice!)
£1.30 on sweets

GRAND TOTAL £59.93 (If don't include DS2's b'day money spending!)

We also opened an ISA (with the Halifax) and deposited £3000!! However, not technically spending, as it's still ours!!!!
