    94p so far.Flatmate used all the milk.Only realised after I had put cereal into bowl, so got dressed quickly and over to shop.

    Feeling awful today, have got a cold :( so all bunged up and sounding not too attractive!

    Hoping that will be sole spend of the day

    Spent £5 on breakfast and newspapers this weekend - which is v. bad considering have gone over budget already this month (although technically the most expensive week should now be over phew!). I allowed myself the indulgence as I am working all weekend - boo!!

    Today is a biggie for me...

    £65 on hair colour, cut & straightened. My hair looks soooo shiny & pretty damn nice even if I do say so myself (it's usually a curly wurly mess) and I budgeted for it so I feel no shame. Really. :o

    £4.25 on some John Freida shampoo for brunettes from Boots only to find out the double points voucher I forgot to use in May, actually ran out in May as well. :mad:

    Got £20 out of the speedbank which I will spend tonight going out with my boyfriend. This will pay for drinks and a taxi back and we haven't been out together for about....??? months. I can't even remember that's how long ago it was!!

    Have a nice weekend everyone and enjoy the sunshine.

    Feeling an unbearable urge to go shopping today and whilst I have still got my vouchers I just know I'll end up spending more. Must...... resist.......

    Other than that, I'm not planning on spending anything today. Got far too much housework to do instead. What fun..

    Argh - well, I resisted the temptation to go clothes shopping but I did have to go and get printer cartridges from Rymans. £23.99 :eek: argh! But, they did then give me a ream of 100gsm paper for free so that's quite good I suppose. :confused:

    I did well - not very often I have a no spend day on a Saturday!

    Been at work all day - took home-made lunch.

    Washing hung out before I left - yet to retrieve it, but sure it'll be like cardboard with 25C of sunshine on it all day!
