    oooh now this is the kind of news I like.........tell us more!
    (that happened to me in 2004 actually......!)

    Looks like a no spender for me today...my only one this week...better late than never. It's only cos of the rain though!

    Think I will postpone grocery shopping till tomorrow...

    A bit odd really. I only dated the guy for a few weeks, then we bumped into each other a few years ago on a train, spoke again & then lost contact again..

    Flattering I suppose ;) . I tend to "grow" on people, like 4 years after we actually meet, hehe!!

    Well done on No Spend Day - my only one this week too. Tut, Tut!!

    You may be able to pick up more bargains if you go tomorrow (unless its Tooting Sainsbury's, who NEVER have bargains - I want to move near Penny Pincher - she always finds the best buys!! :rotfl: )

    "Growing on people"

    Yes that happened to me a lot as well! I like to think that they went off thinking that they could get "a better deal" then found out they couldn't and tried to get a second chance...4 years later or whatever...:rolleyes: :D :rotfl:

    <Well I can dream....>

    I will be going to the Peterborough Sainsburys tomorrow so I hope you are right re: bargains.

    Haha!! That happens to me ALL of the time!! They obviously didnt realise that we were so great - we obviously made a lasting impression.

    60p on car parking
    £9 on fruit n veg from the market
    £1.25 on eggs at the market
    £10.01 in Sainsburys

    So £20.86 which sounds alot... but isn't really when I compare it to what I used to spend on food shopping for the week

    :heartpuls CG :heartpuls
    Ever wonder about those people who spend £2 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backward.

    My record is an ex getting in touch 19 years after we dated! Now, that's what I call "growing" on someone! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Spending today is £18 for a weekly shop in Asda. Might even stretch it to ten days if I remember I'm a FFW as well!

    Wow. Ok, YOU win :rotfl: !!!

    I dont get it, especially when THEY get in touch, you speak to them & then they tell you they have a girlfriend or arent interested, and you think "Why bother". :mad:

    MEN!!!!! :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: Just kidding. Its quite flattering really knowing that he hasnt met anyone quite as, er, special since me (and as I said, we only went on a few dates....)

    Can anyone beat 19 years? By the way - what happened? What did you say?
