The DFW Wagon!! Climb back aboard!!!!

lynzpower

I thought Id run a bit of a confessional as I tossed and turned last night & need to climb back aboard the wagon....!! Please feel free to give me a kick up the you-know-where.

I have sinned DFWs, I have sinned

1) i used £50 of our carbootsale takings in the french connection warehouse and i dont think I can *afford* to replace it. OH said its not important. Im peeved

2) yesterday, i gave OH £8 to go to the chippy. Food was absolutely FOUL. :mad: Complete waste of money and nearly 1/2 our normal shop for the week :eek:

Anyone else lurking that wants to fess up, come on....

Dont give up giving up gang :beer:

great thread lynz.......ordered 2 books on amazon yesterday, book of london and 100 stories in british history for ds1 now he is being educated at home. total £15.58!

owessomuch

I'm climbing back on now with you Lynz!

I was very naughty over the Bank Holiday weekend! I planned one day out with friends and that turned into two nights out :eek:

Hate thinking about that money I've wasted. Seemed like a good idea at the time

Ok, my confession is about electricity. I'm starting to have dreams about how bad the bills will be. The computer, tv, sky boxx and usually the radio too, are on all day and left on standby at night. I use the dishwasher about 3 times a day and have still been using the tumble drier a lot because the weather's so iffy.

Starting to feel really guilty about this as I'm trying hard to cut back in other areas. Think I need to get it sorted!

I bought six new books in Ottakas on Saturday. I also came back from the allotment too knackered to cook last night & had stewed chicken & mushroom & special fried rice from the chinese.

In my defence the books were 3 for 2, but nonetheless the book shop is about 20 yards from the library, but i will read them more than once ( since I turned 40 i can re-read everything a lot as i cant remember anything - very useful)

I do have left over chinese for lunch today so £7 did last night dinner & todays lunch.

Oh dear:o

I havent been THAT bad - but still spent some money this morning that I could have lived without spending - ordered 6 months contact lenses, although did do my research and find cheap supplier using this site - so could have been worse.

I thinking i am hanging off the wagon - and need to get back on properly! my bad meal planning this week meant I had to spend £5 in our local shop on ingredients Grrrrr - Im gonna get more organised!

What did you get from french connection warehouse? I still need to have a look there!!
