    I spent £50 on a haircut last week - that included highlights, restyle and blow dry. Felt horrendously guilty, but it needed doing and it won't be cut again until July. The lady has been doing my hair for 9 years, and she comes to my house and runs her own business. I like her, and I dn't begrudge her the money so I guess its ok! So I do feel your pain ms_london!

    Hehe. Thanks Charitygirl!! To be honest, the last time I had it done was before Christmas, so it is long overdue. For all I preach on budgeting, I should be put money aside each month for it? But have I? No! :0)

  • Having my locks chopped tonight, not sure how much it will cost - is a training evening at Toni & Guy.. its meant to be £20 but my friend is doing it and she said if her boss aint there then its free!

    Hopefully I will get away with a zero spend today (although I might slip my mate a fiver)

    Anyway – I would love to start back off with a no spend day but that’s not going to be happening as that darn man from Tesco’s is coming again this evening and you know he’s going to want some form of payment and I’m sure buttons aren’t gonna do it :rotfl:

    Ah well – tomorrow is another day :D

    Having a no spend today, at last! It has been a while!!
    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
  • Hoping for another no spender today - got an amazon book to post, but that's it (plus £6 in change for the savings ac). Good news is I got my Tesco credit card pin number through today (no card yet) which means I can start getting something back from them. Which is great considering most of my spend per month can be done through that card rather than any other. Baby stoozing, I suppose. If I manage it.

    Spent £7.18 yesterday at Tesco (!) on groceries for the week, which should see us to next Tuesday ... phew!
