Well done Moozie!! Keep it up next week!!
I've spent £4 today, on McDonalds
I ran out of bread at home, and never realised until I went to make my sandwiches this morning lol.
Don't intend to go out tonight (other than to the gym), so £4 for a Friday won't look that bad come tomorrow

Nothing so far today (apart from a train ticket which will be refunded as expenses so am not counting that).
I have a £10 note in my purse and nothing else so am going to see how long I can avoid breaking into it!

Spend free day for me today :j
But I have been on computer far too long and am starting to get tempted by things on ebay :eek:
Off to write some of my dissertation instead I think, should keep me out of trouble :rolleyes:Don't stress, relax, let life roll off your backs. Except for death and paying taxes, everything in life is only for now... Avenue QOfficial DFW Nerd Club - Member no. 003

Another day when I spent a lot. :eek:
£1.20 parking
£4.72 postage for ebay. DS1 now owes me £20 in postage...
£2.09 saline. The contact lens cleaning system I use has been withdrawn, and I needed the saline in case the new system disagrees with me
£3.20 magazine, yes I know, but it has been one of those weeks!
£3.00 white t-shirt for DS1's graphics coursework
£7.50 birthday present for one of DS1's friends
and the big one...
£53.25 for currency for DS1's trip. But this is budgeted and saved for.
And another £12.50 for DS1 to go out for a meal with friends tonight. I think I will type him out an invoice over the weekend... :rolleyes:It is never too late to become what you were always intended to be0 -
I spent £3.85 on the new Jack Johnson CD, used the free £5 voucher from the freebie board to go with it
:jDebt Free At Last!:j0 -
Well done Moozie! :T
I have spent £3.60 on a pint of Guinness and some crisps at lunchtime.
Well it would have been rude not to.....
And that's it. Staying in tonight I am making a curry and I will watch a dvd later with OH and we'll have carrots & hummus dip (mmmm my favourite...does that make me weird?) and I'll be happy. Especially since he bought me some Green & Blacks Maya gold choccy home as well
I hope everyone has a FAB weekend.
<Wish me luck...my car is in for MOT tomorrow..... :eek: >Bank Balance: In the black for the moment.

Serena - have you considered extreme moneysaving and selling DS1?
I'm sure he costs far less most days though!
I've spent just under £20 in Tesco and was pleased because I got 20% off
I used a Sainsburys coupon for £5 which I didn't have high hopes of as it was for their clothing line, but it worked. (Also, the tillguy managed to completely ignore me throughout the entire transaction because he was chatting to another staff member waiting to take over. I was a bit picqued, but found the pain of invisibility lessened by being handed *back* my vouchers once they'd been scanned...)
I've also spent £10 on a gift - I did order it a couple of days ago but as it came today and was charged from the bank today I shall leave Weds as a no-spend and count it today...
There is a very small possibility of me going back to Tesco later on today to buy the mobile phone I've been agonising over for weeks... but probably tomorrow!Do I Need One Stops All Unnecessary Reckless Spending£2 CSC - £30 :kisses3:0
