How much have you spent today? 3/3

Bet someone else starts one of these before I post mine!

Hoping for a no-spender today - babysigning already paid for, and not a lot else to do!

Fingers crossed ... was meant to have a couple of these this week and haven't managed one yet!

    Morning,

    Will have to top phone up today as didn't do it yesterday but now only have 2 pence credit. In budget though.

    Also need to put £15 petrol in car as light has been on for a couple of days now. Also in budget.

    Finally need to buy 3 birthday cards & postage. So many birthdays this month for me!

  • Nothing so far. Tonight I expect I'll probably have a couple of beers but those have been bought out of my "pocket money" and are already in the cupboard, will probably watch a DVD with partner, nice cheap evening. In fact I have a cheap weekend lined up, tomorrow I'm working in a friend's garden and being fed in return! Going out on Sunday for a long walk around Pagham Harbour so that's free apart from the petrol!

    I will have to spend £1.10 to get into town later on bus to meet up with someone for final farewell drinks.

    However I went out last night for the group farewell meal and I decided to drive so I wouldn't spend money on drink & taxi. Spent £15 on my meal and soft drinks (only had a main course - first time in my life I have finished every morsel of a curry! :T Usually stuffed myself with poppadums & starter!) and then came home whilst everyone else piled into the pub. Felt a bit sad that I was missing out but I was strict with myself and told myself at least I got out for the meal - not missing out completely.

    So anyway I have some money left over from last night which I will use today and will hopefully not have to go near an ATM!

    Hope everyone else has a cheap day!

    Morning. Not feeling so well today, glands are up, all sniffly & got a sore throat!! :0( Also feeling a bit miserable, been stuck at home all week (evenings) and just want to get out!!

    Spent 60p on a can of tango - lunch with me so shouldnt spend anything.

    Just listed 25+ items on ebay and because its 50% off listing prices it all came to £4.59 - not bad!!

    ((If anyone wants to see what I'm selling please PM me).

    Hope you're all having a better day xx

    Well, it's OH's payday so I've got to try to avoid thinking about spending much, we need some groceries, plus I'm working tonight and Sunday so it's just tomorrow I need to be strong, we don't need anything.

    I'm even going to donate some clothes to a Jumble Sale and my sister owes my some cash for a couple of things I bought her for her children.

    I've got to give £5.00 to my daughter's school for book week, plus get a small birthday present for my god-daughter.

    So not too sure yet!! sorry for the ramble!!

    I spent £1.86 on breakfast and I don't have lunch with me (still haven't stocked up on groceries after getting back from my trip on Wednesday!).

    But I'm going round to a friend's house tonight to watch movies, so that will at least be a cheap night! Am hoping the rest of the weekend will be the same :)
