How much have you spent? 27/May

Options
Hi Folks, how are you?

Had a good day off yesterday, but spent quite a bit of ££££ :eek: !! Also found the bits I need for travelling; hiking boots, sleeping bag, travel towel, sleeping bag liner, hiking socks - so will need to go back & buy them & part with some cash!! Double :eek: !!!

Today I'm at work.. after today I have 7 more Saturdays left - still finding it tough doing 2 jobs but at least this weekend I've had more than one day off!!

Shouldnt spend much today as not out tonight. May need to get some veggies for tea, but thats about all.

Really must try & have a no spend day!! :mad:

Hope you're all having a good day. I dont want to hear from those of you that are lounging around your house in your PJ's this week ;)

    Well if its any consolation to you Ms L, we are going to windsor ( coach fare) and we need to buy wedding present ( decided on £30 vouchers :eek: and a card. Wouldnt mind but the persons whose wedding it is has got 2 houses & 2 cars, and is loaded. Oh well, never mind.

    God knows what we are going to spend this w/e, I shudder to think :eek:

    Incidentally, If you need any travelling kit check out mountain warehouse off covent garden ( between CG & the strand) only tiny, but they do some good bargains in there .

    No spending for me today, or any other day for about the next 3 years I reckon!
    I got my 0% Halifax card in the post this morning and rang them straight away (before 8am!) to transfer my balance :dance: . It's the beginning of a long road, but I take inspiration from others on this site and set forth with grim determination!
    So, only 7 more saturdays to work ms.l? I'm counting down with you now, lucky girl! :T

  • good morning all!

    I'm hoping for a spend free day as it's finally stopped raining so I no longer have an excuse not to tackle the garden which is in a sorry state

    I have 3 bags of bark chippings and a large grow-bag in stock which should see me through the necessary maintenance - I just need to avoid the temptation to nip out for more plants, etc once I get started!

    Have a great Bank Hol everyone. :beer:

    No spend for me today. I've spent the day doing complimentary treatments for potential new clients and so far everyone has booked in for more treatments (but they pay next time!) so today is a very good day towards being debt free! Yeahhhhhhhhhh! Have a good day folks!
