What have you spent today Sat 18/3/06?

Good morning all

Well it definitely has to be a no-spender for me today as it isn't payday till next Friday and we've very little left.

Didn't update yesterday - I spend £4.92 in Wilkos on cleaning stuff and £15.90 on having my little ones (x2) hair hacked!

My mum bought some food shopping for us too as we've got a huge car repair bill coming. Really hate having to be in the positon where we can't afford to look a gift horse in the mouth but I'm grateful of the help.

Have a nice Saturday everyone, must get my assignment written this weekend!

    Well done for giving up - that's great :T

    It's my DD's 2nd birthday today (where has time gone :confused: ) and we are going to my parents house so I will have to pay mum for the cakes she bought for DD and DS1 (who is 8 next week!). I'm sure she will not want to take the money (about £14 for 2 character cakes :eek: ) but I will insist she does ;) !!

    Well done for giving up smoking Oops A Daisy! I did it seven years ago and I'm so glad I did!

    I am going out tonight!!!! With my best mate and another friend and I am gonna spend some cash!! I haven't been out on the town with her for two months :eek: and I am desperate to get out of the house and have some fun.

    We're going for a meal (I have a voucher for a free bottle of wine) and then to the pub. My mum sent me £25 the other day so I am going to use that, and stick a tenner of my budgeted money onto it.

    I know it's a lot of money but I REALLY need a night out cos I am going a bit stir crazy!!!

    I am at work today - so will be earning some money at least!! Lunch with me, although we dont really get time for one, and not much planned for tonight - have enough food in so should try and have a no spend day!!

    Dull or what?

    Skintchick - have a great night out, you deserve it!!

    Shouldn't be any spend for me today, looking after my gran and washing the car - lunch is arranged and I'll be going round to my parents for dinner!

    Tomorrow will cost me a £5 though ..... in the Church collection box. :) Nothing else though I don't think.

    I am going to have to wean myself off MSE, hehe!! I'll still post, but I want to spend less time on email/text/internet & enjoy myself - I want a holiday from my life here & start afresh. Does that sound too awful? For example, I do have a mobile/SIM ready for Australia, but dont really want to use it - want a break from things.. I'll still pop in and say hi :0)

    Ever wonder about those people who spend £2 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backward.
