    Sorry to put a downer on it, but you have spent 1/30 of your priority debts. If you have loans you have also added more intrest.

    £0.42 and doing nothing .............it don't stand still, it just keeps going up.
    A case of beer has 24 cans. There are 24 hours in a day...............Coincidence?

    well said will.

    this is a daily thread about how much we have spent each day, not about interest on loans etc......not quite sure about the point of your post 1313 :confused:

    Bought a couple of items off ebay and paid my fees (total £1844) but in theory it hasnt cost me anything as someone owed me some money and thought it would never show-they paid direct to my paypal account-so am happy....more a bl00dy miracle..lol.

    Well done jamiedodger on only spending 42p on pineapple for your kids tea :T I dont understand either what 1313 is trying to say :confused:

    Yesterday I shopped in two different supermarkets for stuff I normally use, got 2 BOGOF items (twice so its 2 x 2, if you see what I mean). Saved a little bit. Today I don't need to buy anything.

    I have no debts and don't mind spending when needed, but don't like to just throw it so I look for ways to cut expenditure whenever I can.

    Well done JAMIEDODGER. I see what 1313 is trying to say, but I also agree that the post is off topic.
    Be careful who you open up to. Today it's ears, tomorrow it's mouth.
  • Hi guys

    My very first posting. I'm hoping to make a regular posting on this board to motivate myself everyday.

    So far today I have spent nothing and hope to keep it that way. Tomorrow will be more challenging as I will be going outside the house............

    Have spent nothing so far but bidding on a Snow white dress on ebay that I might spend around £5 on for the kids (cheaper than buying new!), and need to go to the shop for some milk later, so hopefully less than £10 for the day.

    I was down in the dumps today because I only see my boyfriend every other weekend and we waved goodbye to him about 3 hours ago. So we went in a cafe and had a lovely baguette each costing me in total with drinks £7.80. But it did cheer me up a bit.

    Then I went to Tescos and got a few things costing me £5.40.

    I spent £1.87 on chocolate in a local shop for the kids.

    £10.00 on petrol (bought from Tesco so I also got points for it)

    £27.02 on groceries (from Morrisons). Found out yesterday that DH has been accepted for a Tesco credit card so we will use this to pay for everything, pay it off at the end of the month and accrue points.

    £5.36 on nappies and wipes.
