    Nothing. And don't intend to. Taken chicken out of the freezer for tea tonight and tomorrow. Ebaying lots so I don't think about spending money!

    Should be a no-spend day tomorrow as well.

    This is the first run of a no-spend days in a while. Woo!

    £35.16 at Sainsburys which included three bottles of beer for boyfriend.
    He has given me £2.30 back in cash for those and he will buy the fresh veggies we need later on in the week so that's good! Shouldn't have to spend any more money on food this week :D

    ms_london......hope you have a lovely night in. Take a tip from me and keep looking ahead because some day pretty soon, all that working extra hours/days will be history and you can thank it for providing you with extra cash for your travels. :beer:

    Debt-free and Proud!
    I have spent so much today I could cry :(

    £155.00 having my car serviced and MOT'd plus new wiper blades, I also need to TAX it, (will be doing that after playing here for a while) online so that will be another £60 ish all of this wasnt budgeted for as I used to have a company car but it was returned yesterday hence everything having to be done at the same time :mad:

    Hubs took me out for lunch so that was nice, I just brought a couple of drinks approx £9.

    Im having a sofa day tomorrow and refusing to leave the house, surely i cant spend anything if i veg out all day :o

    Im going to have a turbo lister day tomorrow as once my 40 auctions finish tomorrow I havent got anything scheduled.

    Have a great weekend everyone.:beer:
