    The dress is a really simple black dress, its cotten so good for now, and I thought I could also stretch it through to winter with chunky tights and a cardy...and possibley vest if its freezing!!

    My sister went to get one, and she said they were only reduced to £18.. so think mine was maybe marked up wrong. Making it an even better bargin!

    I had £30 left over from last weeks money, so that has gone in the tin for uniforms today.

    I did the food shop yesterday and spend lots, £68 in Asda, but only £45 of this was on food. £17 in Farm foods. So total of £61 on food..so £11 over budget. :(

    However, I did get beef and Chicken on offer that is in the freezer for next week, so hopefully should even out.

    I also spent £12 on two stocking fillers for the kids, and £5 on a pair of trainers for Monster ds, he was desperate for traners and they were reduced from £20.;)

    So that leaves £28 left of the budget for this week. I have already got clubs money etc in a tin, so thats accounted for. But its hair cut week this week...so its going to be tight. :eek:

    Right, well house is clean so I can either nip to town this afternoon or I can do the ironing??

    I would have to go to town on the bus as OH has my car today...to be honest thats the only reason swaying me towards the ironing! As it would be a mafd rush to get there and back in time to collect kids from school.

    I spent Sataurday afternoon fling, so I am now going to keep up the good work and file the post that just arrived...wonder how long this will last?

    I did shred last night, and do not ache at all today...so think its time to move up to level 2? Eeekk , think I might strike the friend of my xmas list who recomended it!!!
