What have you spent today (02/11/05)?

Hi guys,

I hope no-one thinks I'm rude by starting this today, just didn't see one and have been posting a few times now.

Spent £0.00 so far today, planning to keep it that way. Nearly managed it yesterday but ended up spending £12.49 on a DVD. However, this was for my sister's birthday at the end of the month, so decided to get this early, and it wasn't a bad bargain.

Anyway, excuses, excuses... how's everyone else doing today?
Personal ISA Contributions Challenge - current £0 (as at 1 April 2014) / target £15,000 (deadline 31 Mar 2015)

    Here dead we lie because we did not choose
    To live and shame the land from which we sprung.
    Life, to be sure, is nothing much to lose,
    But young men think it is,
    And we were young.

    £1.10 for bus fare home from work later (got a lift to work). May have to buy something small (chewing gum or mints) to get some change for the bus for the rest of the week though.

    Definitely not buying anything else until the weekend as have already spent £17 on treats (book & CD) on Monday!
