    Spent £1 in bakery on 3 croissants. Spent £16.53 in flippin chemist on eye drops (have eye infection), some vitamin tonic for me, soap, deodarant and ST's. Rip off city. Having said that, my parents visited today as they are going away on Sunday until October :( and mum gave me £20 to cover my chemist bill (bless her). Then I started bawling when they were leaving as I'm sick and hormonal and I'm gonna miss them so much!!:( :o

    Well I was meant to pop out at lunch and get a few bits, make-up remover, change a few birthday pressies, but my boss kept chatting to me for ages, so haven't managed to get out for lunch yet!!! So no spend day today looks like!

    May pop out later for a few bits xx

    £30.09 at Tescos which is broken down to:
    £3.27 on essential groceries for the remainder of the week (I met one of my goals to spend maximum £5 on these - yeehaw!)
    £25 cash back for things I need to do this weekend (I am gutted as this takes me over my overdraft profection by £25 but I can't not do these things...)
    £1.82 on other groceries - needed but were not essential...just got them as I was there, save me getting them at Sainsburys at the weekend for slightly more.
    Bank Balance: In the black for the moment.
    Sainsburys Loan: Cleared July 2010
    Credit cards: AMEX Airmiles Card: direct debit set to clear balance monthly
