    Morning guys, what's everyone got planned for today?

    I think we're going to brave the sales. DD1 got a well done post card through the post this morning for her hard work in French at school so we think that deserves a treat in the form of shopping. She can spend her own xmas money.

    Other than that it's sorting out dd2's toys and tidying up and doing some Dooyoo I think.

    I am planning on doing nothing today, i was out until 3am, didn't get to sleep until 4am so just resting today.

    I spent £150 yesterday on clothes, shoes and books :eek: £50 was my Amazon voucher from Jackpotjoy (i was planning on saving it but it didn't last long when i realised i can get the trainers i want from Amazon.... :o). Then £20 when i went out

    So no spending for me today.

    I think the christmas spending has got to me and made me spend.

    In January i am going to reign it in, i will have too :p. At least its my own cash though and i didn't whack it on a credit card
