    First Post First Anniversary Combo Breaker Debt-free and Proud!
    Evening,

    Just got in from a 13-hour day. This should be illegal on a Sunday. I'm so bl**dy tired I can't see straight. Grump grump grump!

    Got a lot on this week - another friend is in a show, and it's the BF's birthday this week so I'm taking him out for dinner, so I'm going to go for £100. Hoping it will be much less than this, but it depends where he wants to go I guess!

    Well I have been away for a couple of weeks so need to get back on track. I am feeling really positive because we have managed a family wedding and a holiday on a very small budget so I just need to keep my money in my purse for the next couple of weeks and it will all be OK!

    £20 for me this week please!

    I am sick of the amount I waste so I am rejoining this thread for the 50th time & aiming to post as regularly as I can to keep myself on the straight & narrow. This week I don't have much planned except a Come Dine With Me I'm hosting on Fri & I need to organise what I'm cooking!? :-\ I think I'll say £20 this week to cover food & drink.

    I want to wear my beautiful wedding dress everyday- it would make shopping so much more fun, I mean, people go shopping in their pyjamas these days.......
    Must STOP spending!!! :)
    Proud to be dealing with my debts!

    NSD for me yesterday too. I washed a couple of coats and there was money in the pockets of both so I felt rich. OK, only about £1.20 but still.

    Need to buy slug pellets today, how exciting, but thats about all.
