    Thanks!

    Well I got £25 from Pureprofile through today so that has gone towards money for my Dad. Is coming down again slowly!

    I spent a bit today. I got some cards including Mothers day, OH's sisters birthday and card for my friend when she eventually has baby. We also went to Asda and bought quite a lot of meat but didn't spend too much considering.

    I need to get some Mother's Day presents, suppose I shouldn't leave it too much longer.

    You're money is coming down quite quickly isn't it, well done.

    Feels like it is slow but it will be gone in no time (hopefully!).

    The last week has been quite spendy and still just under 4 weeks till my next payday! Realy going to have to reign the spending in. I have been taking my lunch to work so that is good though. Today I bought two books which I shouldn't have done really, should join the library like PinkHayley! I also paid for two yoga lessons at work which are 6 each. I did the first today though and was really good, certainly tired me out and my body feels like it has been worked.

    This weekend I will need to buy petrol but shouldn't have too many other spends. I will need to buy my friends baby a present if he decided to make an appearence. Se got induced today so hopefully he will be here soon.

    On the plus side I did manage to sell mine and OHs Dizzee Rascal tickets so we are splitting the money between us and mine will be coming off my loan from Dad.

    Well despite trying to reign the spending in is one thing after another. I have decided that I really need to get my hair cut after 5 months! Will make the budget tighter but has to be done. I have booked an appointment for this morning.

    I am home this weekend, OH has split filling up the car with me so at least that isn't as pricey as it could have been. Went to my friends little sisters gig last night and didn't spend much only for my ticket and a drink.

    We might be going to the cinema to see Alice in Wonderland today which would be good.
  • Hey Wendz, Ooh haircut. What are you having done? I need another hair cut but it's only been 5 weeks. I've realised shorter hair needs cutting much more regularly to keep its style :mad:

    Hope you have a lovely time at home.
    Money paid out from Topcashback so far= £105.89 :j
    No buying magazines in 2011 Challenge- Number bought to date= 0 :)

    Just had it cut and looks nice now, didn't get much done just tidied up and more shape in the front. I have been growing my hair for years but never seems to get that long.

    My friend has just text and said we can pop over for ten minutes and see the baby yay so exciting. She wasn'tgoing to ahve visitors today but as myself and my friend both live away she said we can go round quick.

    We have also booked to see Alice in Wonderand, hope it is good!

    Aww my friends baby was so cute and I got a nice cuddle. She is in a bit of pain and sounds like the birth was fairly traumatic but think they are glad to all be home.

    The film was really good as well.
