  • Managed not to spend a single penny today. eBay auctions finishing in the next 3 hours too, so looking at about £20-odd there.

    Tomorrow is going to be a little more expensive, posting books/auctions/etc and getting some wrapping paper for Chrimbo presents.

    Enjoy your Sunday folks... :beer:

  • £4.99 on a book with loads of cake and cake decorating info and piccies etc. Plan is to make all kids and adults birthday cakes instead of paying £6-12 a pop at M&S.

    My parents were here for weekend and took us all out for lunch today so saved a bomb on roast :j

    Tomorrow have to do the food shop for the week so will be a more expensive day.

  • Spent £1.70 on a Mcdonalds breakfast cos I was late for work and couldn't have any at home (that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it) but it was yummm...

    Spent £10 on a top up for my mobile, about £4 on toiletries and painkillers from Boots but got staff discount and advantage points! :D Also got a free pack of Huggies with the voucher they sent me as the last packet I bought was dodgy!

  • £18.59 on food - which means I have £50 left of the food budget which is pretty good for me.
