95p on a cup of tea.
I have no defence apart from just having had my annual review at work and needing a cuppa0 -
Yay I managed my first NSD of 2009 :j
I thought it would never happen. I forgot to add the 49p I spent on chewing gum yesterday which leaves me on £4.43 so far this week. Much better than I expected with only tomorrow to go.
I must say this challenge has definitly stopped me spending this week. I think the main factor is not having a bank card in my purse that makes a world of difference. Actually that is a bit of a lie I have a bank card with me but it is for an account without an overdraft with only about £10 in and I am not sure if the card works. It stopped me going shopping tonight and buying food I didn't need.
Also I am very proud of the fact I have taken lunch with me everyday so far this week. I usually manage at least 3 days out of 5 but this challenge will make that closer to 5 out of 5.
Wonder how Pip Mum is getting on and if she is in labour as we speak (or should that be type?)
Well done everyone the end is in sight.
