pap/mozzies what have/will you spend 25th aug ~ bank holiday!!

Morning all, hope you are all well and having a nice bank holiday, sorry to all of those who still have to work :o

Whatever you are up to I hope you are having fun. Remember if you need to spend try and 'keep it low' and report back here.

~~~~~~~~

Today I am staying home so 'should' spend nothing. However I need a pizza box to post some things tommorow. So mum is going to buy one from the pizza shop, but last time they gave me one free so fingers crossed :D I shall report back later.

Take care :A

  • Hi Pap & all those that follow
    Will probably spend under a tenner, going to a BBQ need to take some food & drink with us, that should be it though

    I won't be spending anything because I don't have a penny to my name until payday (26th!)!!! I got 2 kittens last weekend and all the money I had has gone on them - they're expensive but worth every last penny! Have a good day everyone :) xx

  • Hi PAP and all you lovely peeps.

    Am definately having a NSD today, far to grey and miserable to venture out today. Am gonna spend all day cooking and baking jummy things for work next week. Am hoping to have several more this week, except for Friday when my friend arrives to stay. :rolleyes:

    Cheers

    Happy Bank Holiday Monday all! Having a lovely day off here. However, I've already been spending... £43.01 on petrol for OH :rolleyes:; £1.92 on developing some photographs; £26.96 on a top-up shop and £10 on phone credit. Nothing too bad I guess and the petrol and food shop are essential and budgeted for, but it's another week until payday so I'm trying to keep hold of every penny! Hope everyone has a lovely day! x

    Hi Pap, and everyone :hello: :hello: :hello:

    Good to see you starting the thread, PaP. :T :T :T

    It's quite a breezy, even chilly, Bank Holiday Monday here in Wiltshire, but the summer hasn't really been that good all round so we should at least be grateful that it's not raining - yet. :eek: :eek:

    Am going to walk along to the village flower show, later on - I will only be taking £2 with me, to deter spending. :rolleyes:

    No other 'spends' envisaged - and I hope to have 'change' out of my £2. :grin::grin:

    Have a great day, everyone :wave: :wave:

    £2.10 - a pound of which went on loo rolls in Poundland and the £1.10 went on my bus fare into work.

    Took in my own lunch which meant I avoided using up any of my lunch account.
    Almost debt-free, but certainly even with the Banks!
