What have you spent today - Sat 22/4/06

LookingAhead

A fortune today and no mistake.

£1.70 on return bus ticket to town.

£50 at hairdressers. Don't care though...I looked as rough as a Badger's ar*e before and now I feel so much better. Love the colour and she straightened it for me (usually curly wurly I am..!) and it looks soooo different.

Then spent £7.38 in Boots for some deep moisurising conditioner & some Summer Body body lotion...I'm so desperately pale and horrid that I want to cheer myself up! Somebody on the Debt Free & Fat Free thread recommended it (thanks!) so I have gone for it.

Also spent £7 in M & S on some undies

I finally ventured into Claire's Accessories as I wanted to try something new on my hair. I spent £3.50 on a Whirl & Twirl or whatever it is called - rubber thing that you supposedly can use to make your hair go into a bun or a chignon or whatever. What a load of old RUBBISH. I am so angry at myself for buying this. Unless I am seriously thick and just can't "work" it properly, I think I may just as well have tipped £3.50 down the toilet. :mad: And it's not the sort of thing you can really take back.

Also, notably....I tried on the most goregous fabulous skirt in John Lewis. It was reduced to £22.50 (from £45 I think) and I loved it. I truly loved it. I put it back..........I was gutted but pleased with myself at the same time if that makes sense. But when I got home & tried the hair accessory, that soon sorted that out. I felt like an idiot again. :rolleyes:

Managed a no spender here too. Went out for lunch with OH, which he paid for
Spent money yesterday though on cooking everyone dinner, Wasn't loads but I've now only got £3 in my bank account till friday.So defo going to be having some no spend days this week.

Posted off my application to I.F for CC.They've offered me 4.95% on BT for life of balance. Includes all BT done with the first 6 months of opening. So hopefully I'll transfer the Abbey CC onto that, clear plenty (i hope) within a couple of months, then transfer my remaining store card onto it.

Heres hoping!!!

needed to get a few bits from the supermarket - strawberries ( half price then got 20p off ) milk ( got 20p off ) bread flour ( yep got 20p off ) and reduced leeks with 50% free ( you guessed it got 20p off ) I had a load of vouchers to use up by the end of today so this was a little top up shop to last me through till next friday with everything I already have in. I also got some grow bags 5 x 89p from Aldi and some seed potatoes £3.49 :eek: to grow my own - they had better grow Also Saturday is fees day at my daughters dance school £15.00 for the week I think thats it for my spending today - tomorrow must and will be a no spender

I've got a really bad memory and often try to hold onto thoughts of things I need to do...

At the moment I am twitching every five minutes or so thinking that I must come here and post - which would be fine if I'd actually spent something, what I've actually done is placed a bid...

Do you think anyone on Freecycle might have a spare (not abnormal) brain?

£2.60 today as I was starving in town so bought a baguette. Then about 5mins later my mum rang me and asked if I wanted a roast dinner in 30mins! Damn

Thanks Charitygirl & Sunnydo!!!

Feeling a bit happier about things. More of the "why does this keep happening to me" upset-ness than actually him, as it had only been a few dates.

Only spent 9 pounds on Sat night which was fab - but didnt stay out that late in the end, so am on budget for this month.

Roll on Aug!! Totally had enough of work etc.
