    Good day today. Only 42p on a pint of milk and 88p on teabags! Whoo Hoo! I think i'm getting the hang of this. Now if I could just give up the fags?!
    :)
  • Yeh the fags are a nightmare but if you can give them up it will save a fortune and also make you feel much better :)

    Of course I gave up 6 weeks ago and not had one since. Have however had a cold and now the flu.... hmmm where are those Bensons :rotfl:
  • well mine was going to be £0 lol, till i started listing on ebay and my camera died. so i had to go and get some batteries (aa ones yesterday i brought aaa). Mums a bit skint so i ends up going to asda with her and brought cat food, milk, water, pasta, fruit, batteries and whatever else was in the trolly and that came to £18.37 :eek: the batteries were a little expensive at £6.96 but they are a 20pack so they should last forever lol. I no have £9 till march the 7th :rotfl: i am going away and am not spending any of my wages so from now till then i am only going to work and nowhere else lol

    Hope you feel better soon Creditcardkid !!!!

    I too have been 'poorly' for the past week ...... great way to stop spending !!!!

    I have spent NOTHING in past 6 days !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    We have a freezer full of food since Christmas / New Year (lots of bargains !!!!!) ........ so only really need ongoing 'essentials' which we'll need to get tomorrow !!!

    Don't know if I really want to break my new non-spending 'habit' though !!!!!!!!

  • Hello JD,
    Joy of Joys… nothing spent today – how wonderful. Just a semi-lazy, relaxing Old Style day pottering about. Since it’s close to the end of the month I thought I would sort of finalise the January spreadsheet data. Needed to see how the expenditure for all the groceries and other things bought during the month is going – not too bad on the whole. :rolleyes:

    Been doing some Internet research on a new vacuum cleaner as my really, really Ancient, Second Hand one (cost £10.00) is not the best now but will be really useful to keep and use in the garage. The one I will probably buy is the VAX 6131 for about £105.00. The model also washes the carpets as well as vacuuming them – how clever is that! :D
    :)The £2 Coin Savers Club = £346.00 (£300.00 transferred to Savings a/c)

    Abbey Loan £6,000
    Tesco loan £3,000
    Tesco points --- £100 worth £400 in deals for holiday! :j :T

  • Helloooo!

    Spent £5.80 in Tesco on some bits for kids' lunchboxes for next week, then spent £23 in Boots and got a big pack of nappies, 2 packs of wipes, 3 pairs of tights, deodarant, ibuprofen, paracetamol & codeine, tixylix (for the sprogs), lip balm and some chocs! That's it I think!
