im quite sadly impressed with myself for managing it.....
Got money for my birthday to go toward lessons so I will use that to pay toward an intensive set of lessons.
Car and insurance etc comes as part of my package with my job so the sooner I can get started with that, the better.....Wealth is not measured by currency0 -
you should be very proud! how are the lessons going?0

Good afternoon all!
Today Im doing our asda order online and hopefully not going to go into any supermarkets for the next week plus!!!!
We're dreadful when it comes to going to asda so need to avoid it at all costs.
I've been through our freezer and we currently have:
2 x salmon fillets
1x large chicken pie
8 x cod fish cakes
2 x small salmon en croute
1x fish pie
1 x 500g oven chips
1 x bag of frozen sausages
1 x packet beef rump steak
1/2 pack of frozen roast parsnips
1 x bag of broccoli florets
1 x 500g mince
2 x chicken and veg pies (small)
Cupboard wise I've got jars of curry sauce, some casserole packet mixes, tins of sweetcorn etc
So really I should only need to buy items for lunch and vegs....
Im going to aim for a £25 spend I think....
And then I need to put together a meal plan and stick it to the fridge so DH can get started if Im stuck late at work!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA....... will eat my own hat if that actually happens....Wealth is not measured by currency0 -
bl&&dy £25 minimum spend exc delivery.... b*ggersWealth is not measured by currency1
-
£28.29 in the end with delivery costs....
bit annoying but the actual shopping I got in for £25.01 so really I managed it!
Also got my meal plan ready for the week as well, and got lunch stuff for DH and myself in that as well.
Freezer will be empty in 10 days, but thats not necessarily a bad thing!Wealth is not measured by currency0 -
