Well I've been to town for a few bits that I needed this morning, I wanted a bag for when I start college next week (!) too and some toiletries.
I looked all over for a bag to fit my ring binders in but couldn't find one cheap enough! So I went into Boots to spend my 4x£1 vouchers, resisted the No7 free gift when spend £20, found a pedometer reduced to 99p and a massive 'gorgeous' cloth bag for life for £3 and PERFECT for college!!! And when I got to the till the pedometer was reduced even further to 65p LOL so I got 35p change too!
That's my bargain of the day
I also went to the market for fruit and veg instead of Mr T.
