So, today:
Make meal plans - not that many evenings in this week due to free cinema screenings and suchlike so must think of some cheap food to take along with us.
Daily scratchies - 10p 10p
Go to Tesco to stock up, managed to not go last weekend and just have a top up shop so now we're quite bare!
Meals from stores today - beans on toast for breakfast, something with butternut squash for lunch and HM pizza in front of X-Factor for tea.
Checked banking - PD yesterday so moved change to ISA, can't sort everything else out until Monday as left spreadsheet at work.
Money arrived from Paddypower matched bet so also into ISA.
Lottebear - when are you getting married? Or is it someone elses hen night you're saving for?
My SIL is getting married in July and I think the hen night is going to be a weekend away somewhere which is going to add up!
Also a dear friend from Uni is getting married in April hers is in Feb, which is a Facinator making day and a night out which is going to cost £100.
Hopefully the pennies will make a dent.0 -

Hello all, been a long time since I posted ( since June actually). My mum was very ill and subsequently died and life has been just about getting back to normal.
I have been reading and kept thinking about posting but forgot my login details. Had a memory flash this morning so signed in!
Nice to see some familiar names and some new ones - where is SM? Busy with her new cottage?
Will aim to post more regularly. Not a good start today as have spent rather than saved already but now have a Christmas present sorted for OH!

PS well done Fay on Evil Edna ( that's what I call myself when I've been in a bad mood with the DS's!)Getting there...slowly!
GC : must do better
NSD: very rare
No matter how slow I go I am lapping everyone on the couch.0 -
YB sorry to hear about your Mum - terrible when you lose someone.
I think SM is busy keeping her hens busy and sweeping chimneys at the cottage and alike (I lurk on the live on £4k board!) ....................:)
Evil edna is truely dead - funny that you call yourself that I tell my two I am the wicked witch of the west!!!
