    went to clinic and bought my son a tine of sma for £4.25 and then to morrisons to buy some bits to makes some cakes and bisuits plus few other bits spent around £14. but i still well within my monthly shopping budget.

    not planning to go out again today so thats all i should be spending
  • £5 on 2 boxes of cereal - I ran out because they new one i tried was so yummy i've been using it as snack food. Oh well.

    ruyareece - i can't stand the shops with nowhere to try boots on. Since i'm a half-size i'd be constantly taking things back.
    Still wish I could buy a TARDIS instead of a house!

    My black trousers were from primark, £8. They have two holes on the seam in the inside leg. Its a disgrace really, but they fit so well!!

    I find this as well with primark trousers! I've a few which have been patched up, and my OH jumped once at band pratice wearing some primark trousers and they split at the crotch. :p It's always the inside leg that goes for me but no where else

    I have had them a long while though and do wear them every day for work, yes I know, gross :0) I just wish I had bulk bought them when I found them as they fit me just right, being a tall girl too.

    I just have to remember to sit with my coat on my lap when im on the tube :0)

    Hi all, really annoyed today, didnt plan on spending anything but popped into mums work and her colleague talked me into buying a raffle ticket didnt really want it as cant afford it as you can see, it cost me £2 admittedly the prize is £2000 and would go a long way to reducing the debt, but I never win anything..........................
