    Well I have woken up with enormous swollen glands, so I think some of my money is going to go on cold remedies today sick-298.gif

    Hopefully I will feel a lot better by the time I get home tonight...

    Have a lovely LSD all :D
  • I have updated the first post.

    :(:(:(:(:(:( dinner was very expensive last night £46, I also went for a drink and pool with boyf before, so that was £3.80 and then £5 on taxi home. All in all the most expensive Monday I have had in a long time. It is difficult going out with other that earn a lot more cash than us and think nothing of wine at £27 a bottle :eek:

    Oh well it was a good night. Hopefully today will be a LSD.

    £1.45 today so far on tea and a scone.

    I'm not well so it's allowed...
  • 60p today on crisps as I was staving but at least still well under budget so far this week.
    Worked out my cut in hours at work will cost me at least £45 a month so going to have to really start cutting back.

    This weeks not going to plan. I've just had to buy ds a new coat which i had not planned for. Mind it was only £14 and its one of those 3 in 1 coats so not too bad i suppose. also had to do mini top up shop but that was out of gc money.
    Think i've got about £10 to last till sun, which will do us no probs providing nothing else unexpected crops up.

    Spent more than I meant to today and didn't get my cold medicine! :D

    Here's what it went on:
    • £2.45 - two cups of tea and a scone
    • £3.63 - gubbins. That would be three tupperware tubs (Good reduction in Morrisons) and some doughnuts.
    I did also buy some groceries, but this comes from my other budget. Although I bought the doughnuts and tupperwareish tubs when I was getting the groceries I have taken them from my Weekly Spend money as they were impulse purchases I didn't need.

    I have therefore spent £6.08 today. Not long till Friday now :D

    Hope your feeling better soon FF. I think the doughnuts were probably your cold medicine!

    £2.50 yesterday on de-icer and a couple of other things, £4 today for a colleagues sponsorship. Must try harder for the rest of the week.
