    I spent £1.28 sending ebay parcels, and then £1.75 on a magazine which will hopefully console me after my exam this afternoon - I'm not expecting it to go well!

    Good luck with your exam Hanspam.

    I'm aiming for a no spend day. My dad's just popped round to borrow something and given me some money to treat my children to some sweets. That saves me a £1.00! How sad am I getting, lol.

    Have a good day!

    Its not going too well at the moment
    S
    pent £2 on coffee hanging around waiting for Dr's appointment

    £3.98 on food that I'm not sure I needed - totally seduced by chocolate flavoured instant coffee on sale in Boots - no calories, no sugar - I am SO lame! (but the coffee is soooo good!)

    Meeting up with friend for a good gossip this eve - I will be drinking soda water and ordering the cheapest thing on the menu (side order of chips please!)

    C'mon Ebay and Amazon sales!!

    Money spending avoidance:
    I did manage to stop myself replacing my clinique foundation - I an survive with just tinted moisturiser - eek!
    Brought lunch with me
    Didnt buy a second coffee on way out of doctors (yes, I know I have issues)
    Am getting the bus instead of the tube this eve
    So I make that a virtual money saving of:
    £28.20
    (yes, I know virtual savings are a bit irrelevant - but they make me feel better!)

    Total £4.07

    Not too bad considering the toothpaste i s'pose.

    Got to the office this morning and was ambushed by the staff member organising our in-house charity event. It was in front of other members of staff, all of whom hadn't bought raffle tickets, so I spent the last £5 in my purse on three tickets for SPARKS (childrens medical research thingy).

    It shamed some of the others into buying tickets too. Worth every penny.
    Some days, it's just not worth chewing through the leather straps....
