    Almost went all day without spending, but boredom kicked in and went to the garden centre.

    Good intentions tho: £5.19, spent on vegetables seeds, a french bean plant and a container.

    Might save some money by growing more veges!!!

    Nothing spent but half the garden dug and planted with veggies, I may need to spend a couple of quid on painkillers for my back tomorrow though :D

    Oh and to make it even better I didn't even have to find anything for tea as XDH and his fiancee turned up with the complete makings for a barbeue including the charcoal :)
    Organised people are just too lazy to look for things

    F U Fund currently at £250

    I was most virtuous today and went to work from 7.30-1.30, then I spent £17.30 in Tesco on groceries, (I picked up and then put down a bottle of wine to buy, good eh?) Then I came home and made a sausage casserole and plum crumble for dinner.

    Quite a good day today really as I was possibly going to a May Fair type thing to have a mooch and meet friends but I didn't want to spend any more money so I resisted.
    A minute at the till, a lifetime on the bill.

    Nothing tastes as good as being slim feels.

    one life, live it!

    £2.50 on a white shirt for interview tomorrow - reduced from £2.75 - had a mark on it - SIZE 10 - go me!!
    Bought some stardrops too - 59p in asda, I think.
    Lacto-free milk at £1.28 - I know expensive but worth it to stop DD scratching - we only use one carton a week anyway.

    Tomorrows aim is to not spend any money whilst in manchester for interview - will pack 3 bottles water, oatcakes, fruit and crisps. Have biggish breakfast and see how I go. Flight leaves Glasgow at 10am returns at 4.30pm.
    gone

    Spent £58 in asda (bad me!) - got a couple of bits for baby with that and some of the groceries should last the month.

    Endemoniada - good luck with the job interview tomorrow
