    I am going for a no spend, successfully managed just 75p yesterday! Hopefully I will spend no money until sunday when I owe my friend £5, here's hoping anyway.

    Have a good day Greenfingers, looks beautiful out there

    well, i had a day off yesterday to take my moped in for a service. The nice man from the garage phoned me in the afternoon to say i had a big hole in the exhaust........and it is £120 for a new one :eek: so i think it is going to cost around £220 with the MOT and service aswell - and i have to wait a few days for the new exhaust to arrive. I should be able to cover this without increasing my debt as i held on to my overpayments this month.

    so spending for today is £2.60 for bus to work and back.

    Also spent £25 on a haircut yesterday, haven't had it done since last year.

    I have not spent anything so far, but have ate my home made lunch already as I never had anything in for breakfast...

    So will need to buy low fat Philadelphia at lunch time, and maybe a bottle of wine as have got a girls night tonight...

    Hopefully that should be all though..
