  • Spent £0.00 today which I am really pleased about.

    I did go out in the end last night, and spent around £23 - which included something to eat. That is quite impressive for me, took it nice and steady (we started at around six too!).

    i haven't spent a single penny today. and really pleased. i have been at home baking biscuits and cooking , the weather was so horrible i didn't fancy going out.
  • Yesterday: £35 on a week and a bit's food shopping - I found an excellent stall on the market that sells damaged boxes and short date food for next to nothing, next to the butcher that has a different bulk-buy offer on every week

    £8 on a new fishtank (goldfish are cheap - tanks are not)

    and £7 on a trip to the fireworks display.

    Today it was another £12 on food, but that was to make some home-made cakes and bread to freeze off.

    This morning I spent £2.86 at Boots for my lunch, I was tempted to buy something else for 85p but then I realised that i could do without. If I go college this evening I may end up spending another £1.50 so that'll be £4.36 in total (a bit too much on food each day me thinks!!)
