Total spends today so far:

£4.00 in Home bargains for toliet paper, toothbrushes, some pop corn, fizzy drink and, er, rocky bars...:rolleyes: Healthy!!!

Should'nt spend anymore today though. Budget has been a bit rubbish this week am going to make much more of an effort for next week. Going to do a shop on Saturday, going to look for some bargains in Aldi and Iceland

I used to love Home Bargins when I was at uni, shame there isn't one down here in the deep dark south. We used to go once a week and buy out their stock of biscuits really...

Ok, so have spent a little bit of money on takeaways this weekend....

Had a lovely curry last night whilst watching a DVD (from Odeon direct, £15 a month but worth it) and McDonalds today

Car goes into garage tomorrow :eek: not sure how much that will end up...going to do a bargain shop tomorrow as haven't been shopping yet. Really need to tighten our belts this week. Have brother's birthday and day out as well!

Congrats on getting onto the PGCE! I'm sure you'll love it! That reminds me, I need to contact my uni to see when I have to register etc, I think it's a month away but haven't heard anything yet. Starting to get worried!

Thanks! I received enrolment info a couple of weeks ago (when I was still conditional) so you should hopefully get info soon. Do you have an idea of your start date?

Total spends yesterday: take away curry for me and hubby £17 (with soft drinks) petrol £20

Had a curry last night which was abit naughty but had a lovely cheap evening apart from that watching Beatles night on BBC 2, fab.
Did also put hubby off going on a late night cinema trip when it had finished which would have ended up costing around £20

And, considering I celebrated getting into uni by buying a book?! (how rock n roll am I, although it was a very special John Lennon book) I think i deserved it!

Right, total spends today:

Morrisons shop- £38 (was £42 but get 10% discount) - this should last as all week and includes cleaning stuff/washing tablets etc as well (had some good deals)

Will just need to get a couple of frozen bits from iceland tomorrow for roast dinner on Tuesday.
