Wonders will never cease! I got paid!
Right basic and banding and tax code- I think the payslip has gone AWOL. I am stunned; My nagging of the hr woman must have done something next stop, a contract.

Still can't believe i've got money!
£750 paid off the M&S card
£25 min payment to MBNA
Capital one paid off for this month.
Leaving £1,323. essentials come to £1007 so i've got £316 for the month.
which if that's all i spend means i can start on the MBNA CC debt next pay day.
Spend today £0 (but i haven't been for my curry and film yet!)
Oh and the mog's been fighting... again- i've had to shave her arm and am holding her down to clean it this time, too expensive not to!

Curry was £27- though people owe me money and i must demand they pay me back instead of saying, oh no forget it we'll sort it out another time; never happens :mad:
cinema- time travellers wife very good, and not wierd at all, plus Eric Bana, be still my beating heart!£7
Today £17 waxing, and must go shopping as my fridge has 1 passionfruit, 1 bottle of tomato sauce and some slightly crusty cheese. Pasta alla ketchup passion anyone?

SO EXCITED! I've just checked the balance on my M&S card and for the first time in 10 months it's £0 such a good feeling.
on the downside i'm paying for last week's frugal shopping with a massive shop this week
£85!! I must do better!
last night was video night - £6.45 (had a fine on my card)
next week - nights, surely i can't spend if i'm asleep? maybe it could be a NSW....

It's not been a no spend week, but it's been pretty good.
sunday lunch £7.90
Amazon (new dvd's) £28.07 a little treat because i'm doing 100 hours this week.
Friday magazine £2
And so far that's it. It's looking good for £200 off the MBNA card this month too.

Well done on your progress so far! But... 100 hours?!
