It was going to be nothing. But I needed some flour, sugar, eggs as I was on baking spree.
So about £2.11

When I returned a parasol cover (£8) to Homebase (got one in Woolworths for £3 in the meantime). It should have been straight in and out but I got waylaid at the plants - spent £15 on oriental lilies and a big grey ceramic pot to plant them in. Looks fab..So, overall £7 down in Homebase!! Later I got seat cushions from Woolworths for the garden furniture (£20 for 4 compared to £40 for 4 in Homebase, for what looks to be the same product.) I also bought quite a handsome barbecue from Cargo (haven't got one, have a lot of evenings in the garden planned this year!). That was £25 reduced to £20. Then I had to buy a wedding present - felt I couldn't be cheap, they gave us £150 on our wedding! So I got a GORGEOUS blue/green satin bedspread from John Lewis...£100.They're Americans, so won't discover what it cost by chance...
We'll probably buy them a nice bottle of Champage or buy dinner when we go over for the wedding next week too.
£147 - so much for a no spend Sunday!!
Ah well - it was all stuff I was absolutely going to have to buy anyway (bar the lilies, perhaps) - and tomorrow is a no spend day for sure!!!!0 -
Just £1.79 on some Rooting Powder, as now have some mature shrubs that I'm going to try and grow from cuttings to pad out the garden. Wish me luck!
Other than that, stayed home as it's rained all day here too, cleaned F/F and now working out how to get a free ad in the local paper. Have put another box of stuff together for a car boot sale and cooked a roast.
Just got school uniform to iron for DS and packed lunches to do.Back on the DFW Wagon:

Continuing a theme here...
No spend day! Hurrah!
Lots of revision for impending exams.
Had a break to clean the fridge and store cupboards and decided to make a couple of meals for the week. Fish pie (salmon and smoked haddock topped with cheesy mash, and lentil soup with onions, carrots, red pepper and bean sprouts. Both sampled and both yummy. Very quick too, but will be quicker (slower?) when I get my slow cooker!
Popped on here on and off to break up day. Back to the books then!:eek: What if the hokey cokey is what it's all about? :eek:Official "Bring back Mark and Lard NOW! or else (please)" Member 160 -
