    Today has been an NSD, as train fares are allowed spends, but I put them in my £30 otherwise I'd go bonkers.

    £27.41 has gone down by £5.90 for train today, and £5.30 for the train tomorrow and Weds (bought online half price!) so thats a total of £16.21 for the week left. Not too bad, as my train fares account for 1/2 my spends. Also getting £11 from Quidco which wasn't expected, so this is scarf and gloves money
    ** Total debt: £6950.82 ± May NSDs 1/10 **
    ** Fat Bum Shrinking: -7/56lbs **
    **SPC 2012 #1498 -£152 and 1499 ***
    I do it all because I'm scared.

    Confession being good for the soul and all that I bought this yesterday (Clicky!)

    I had just returned a jumper so had £15 extra cash, so I'm only putting it down as having cost me £15.

    Oopsie!

    I will have to be very good for the rest of the week :A

    Hehe, it is a lovely bag :D

    Today I have bought new trousers (£12 high street vouchers from Toluna used and £8 was a credit balance on my New Look card, so essentially free troosers!!)

    I also spent:

    25p - coffee
    £2 - sandwich (I had food with me too, but didn't fancy it)
    £2 Christmas present for my friend.

    I'm going to be over budget this week.....

    Bah, Mr Fresian just reminded me that he posted something next day delivery for me today - another £5.40.

    I think I might be over budget already!
  • I spent £7.00 yesterday - a combination of parking fees, a coffee and a newspaper. I couldn't resist the coffee and the newspaper. To make up for that, I had a NSD today. Hopefully manage one tmrw as well.

    Good luck - hope we all do well this week.
