How much have you spent today? 06/01/06

Lottiepots

I spent £4.50 getting my boots healed and gave my Gran a loan of a fiver because she had forgot her purse and wanted to buy lottery tickets.. should get the £5 back though, if she remembers. Or maybe she'll win and I won't have to worry about debts!

I work in a pub part time and we are having a free xmas night in the pub for staff so shouldn't spend anything later either, yeah.

So, OH took it in for MOT this morning (costing £40) and.... it b****y failed! So, need to get new windscreen wiper blades for it (have no idea how much these are)

windscreen usually covered on insurance - and doesn't affect your no claims but check the small print first.

Only spent money on lunch and I will get it back on expenses. Also got a £5 voucher for the same restaurant to use later in the month. So I'm £5 up at the moment.
