    I spent:
    £2.50 carparking
    £19.45 at the market (of which £4.05 was on things for my Mum, unfortunately I owe her £4.00...)
    I take a limited sum of money with me and at the first stall I was given a £2 coin in my change so I was soon out of cash :o Bumped into a friend and wandered back round with her which meant going back past all the stalls I'd hurried past so as not to be tempted! But I got home with my £2 coin intact (though not a bean else!)
    264 points in Boots on dried apricots and stockings.

    I'm wavering over whether to go to the supermarket now to finish off the shopping to see us through the weekend, but probably more sensible to leave it till tomorrow so the bread is fresher for Monday's packed lunch :)

    Became debt free in 2007 after having £15k of debt. Have been a stranger to MSE and now want to get back into my old MSE habits and save, save, save

    Happy Birthday eamon and bootman..


    wednesday was my birthday and I have only spent a fiver of my 'gift' money so far..
    regretting not spending it yet though as I know i'll use it for nappies and groceries tomorrow

    today I spent 50p on a whole sack of onions..wanted just one from a new local greengrocers, and he said he didn't want to split, so I could take a bg for 50p as I was one of the first customers..woohooo
    he also gave me a bag of mixed fresh herbs for free..

    prices look very cheap anyway and soon will be a fishmongers and butchers too, which will be a healthy boost to our shopping budget.

    oh and quite a lot on phonecalls trying to sort various stuff out..grrrr

    Spent £19.60 today in Tescos. Do my main shop online, but needed milk, fruit and veg. So I feel good about that because its good for us and came out of our shopping budget.
