    I bought myself a train ticket so I could come up here to Leeds from sunny Brummieland. I also relented and bought 2 bottles of water at the train station (2x750ml for £2). I know I know, but I was really hot and sweaty after running down to the station in order to miss my train!

    Oops not a very good day today.


    £16.75 in Boots but got half price sunglasses and triple points :j as they where Boots own brand

    3.56 in somerfield but that is household spends

    82p in Asda reduced bread but that is household spends

    80p In budgens on reduced bread but that is household spends

    And went to tescos put somethings in my basket and then put them back and walked out. I have not shopped in tescos for about 6 months and don't think I ever will again. Unless they become the only supermarket in around here for miles.

    Yours

    Going out and about today with the OH. A walk around the shops and maybe a little lunch somewhere. I think £30 should cover everything I need (couple of bits of make up, newspaper) and everything I want (lunch out, maybe a new top for work) but will report back how it goes.

    Well, I'm back to update my spending and it wasn't as low as I had hoped :rolleyes: but it's ok as I underspent last night ;)

    So, here goes...

    £32.85 @ Body Shop on make up & bits - got a freebie bag with goodies in it which will make a Christmas gift :T
    £1.49 on paracetamol & points from Boots :)
    £0.79 on a bottle of water
    £6.33 @ Starbucks - OH bought us nice lunch so I treated him :love:

    Total: £41.46

    Can't remember last time I spent as much :think:

    Well it was a really nice day today as did not do that much apart from odd jobs with my little boy. We spent £2.21 on some really nice ham for tea and £4.67 at colemans on a calender for 2007, a bulldog clip and a clip board. Watched a Barbie movie (he loves barbie) and then took a football down the park and watched two local teams (one was red so he thought it was liverpool) for an hour and a half and it was great. hubby was doing an extra days work earning £80 and I did a cleaning/gardening job tonight which earns me £24 so total for today is +£97.12.... not bad!!

    Well it wasn't as low as I hoped as I realised I needed wine and creme fraiche for my recipe so £4.68 in the end but as a saving grace I did boil up the chicken carcass and make stock with it and I have leftover chicken for sandwiches and curry tommorrow night so I got several meals out of that chicken even if it was an expensive organic one.

    Just totting up, Sunday Morning, to see what we spent yesterday, but not too bad. Did Tesco shop, but bread was all reduced so we got 3 loaves for freezer at 23p a loaf. Good Shop - £38.50.
