    :A I've not spent anything today :A

    I suppose the challenge is to spend nothing on a weekday in which I have left the house though... ;)

    Spent £51 at tescos for me & OH today which is a bit more than I wanted to, but I did get my radio for the kitchen which Ive been after ever since I moved in( 2 years ago- but too tight to buy one before!!) 1.50 on the bus home from tescos, and about to pay £62 for a bed & mattress in preparing for my lodger to move in.

    So a pricey day today... :-(
    :beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
    Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
    This Ive come to know...
    So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:

    Spent five hours at plant sale, spent nothing (amazing feat of self control), and sold some plants, so £5.50 in credit for the day. :j

    I don't think I've ever been able to not buy something... hee hee.... :D .. its just impossible. Then on top of that is the 'coffee bar' - lol where you just have to buy a coffee or tea and maybe some tasty sandwich.... and then maybe another browse about the plants.... :p

    Hi Greenfingers,

    well, I did say it was an amazing feat of self control! :D I was manning the society stall, so not much opportunity to wander off, and it tipped it down with rain all afternoon, which was pretty discouraging. Now, if the sun had come out, it would have been a totally different story!

    Just going to put in a seed order, as too wet to do anything but virtual gardening...
