    Me too. Will be the first one in a long time so it's going to be tough. Even now I'm thinking that I could probably scrape together 50p from behind the sofa etc to buy a bar of chocolate...........but one bar leads to a pile of magazines, a Sunday newspaper and a fancy croissant. I've got to see if I can find a bit of self discipline somewhere!

    With any luck it's behind the sofa cushions with the pennies ;) Do you need the rustle of the newspaper pages or would you enjoy the newstories on the online versions?

    Like you Jamiedodger I think a lot of my success in non-spending today is going to be due to staying in... ooh, hang on - I've got birthday pressies to order.

    But it's in the budget :o

    DH is currently playing 18 holes of golf so that's £16.50 I think, plus he owes his golfing buddy a tenner. They should be the only spends of the day.

    Hi everyone,

    Busy making soup and cleaning and getting some craft fair stuff organised for next weekend. Hoping for a no spend day - but really hoping my OH will go out and get me a paper - and that doesn't count for me!

    Better go and get on with it!

    scottishspendaholic x
    MBNA = £4,000 / Next = £925 (approx. tbc on 19/8)
    Tesco = £2,910.11 / Smile overdraft = £500
    Bank of Scotland = £2,782.83

    I won't be spending anything because i'm not going anywhere!

    Oh, the food shopping's being delivered between 11-1, but that doesn't count does it? Because it was ordered and paid for yesterday!! :)
    Why is there always so much month left at the end of my money? :doh:
