    Would anybody mind if I joined the ' How much did you spend today' thread?

    I think it would really help me as I can't seem to stop wasting my money. It might help to see it all written down everyday.

    What is the thread etiquette? Do you put bills as well as everyday items?

    Thanks alot

    Hiya gang!

    Spent £10 on my monthly mobile top up, £2.63 on a No7 mascara I got with my £5 NO7 voucher (and staff discount), and another £10 on nappies, wipes and handwash. Got another £5 voucher to spend next time!!! Got lots of the Time Delay vouchers but we had nothing under £5 so didn't bother!

    £12 on two meals in Weatherspoons £25 on coat for daughter from Matalan and £3.58 on half price loo roll and lucasade in Sainsburys.
    Did save £3 on bus pass by walking there and back but it was a bloody long way!Have to get an oyster card. Have managed to save a fortune this week by stearing clear of Tescos, usually go most days.
    Here dead we lie because we did not choose
    To live and shame the land from which we sprung.
    Life, to be sure, is nothing much to lose,
    But young men think it is,
    And we were young.

    I have been out with DH today, he paid for lunch etc

    I bought some fresh pasta which cost £5 for 3 large packs, bit of a treat but it was worth it.
