About £10 on stupid things that I didn't really need. Boooooooo! :mad:
:heartpuls CG :heartpulsEver wonder about those people who spend £2 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backward.0 -
I have spent £10 on 2 games of bowling & shoe hire plus about £5 on two drinks at the bar.
Luckily I got a lift there & back saving me a small fortune on a bus & then a taxi home. I also ate at home before I went out so I wouldn't have to have one of their overpriced and underwhelming veggie burger & chip basket meals which would have left me skinter and feeling like I needed a shower - dirty food, urgh!Bank Balance: In the black for the moment.

OK... not a great day. I spent:
£9.99 on new sunglasses (broke mine at the weekend and have been squinting ever since)
£15.00 on registering for a Breast Cancer Pink Aerobics event in September
£1.59 on a cheese pastry at the station (missed lunch and was starving)
£11.00 on some bangles and new earrings- yes I know that sounds extravagant but I've got to go to a posh do on Friday and have to look the part.
On the plus side I haven't spent a single penny on cooking at home since my big monthly shop last week (£82).Debt at highest May 2006: £27,472.24

Well I had a bad day.
No time to make lunch. Bought a sandwich and choccy after an awful morning and an even worse evening previously. Went to see the horse she has rubbed herself raw with her cheap fly rug (Sorry mate I am a moneysaver that is how I afford you!!) So I have had to spend £100 on a good one. Don't anyone mention ebay or I will cry.although I might sell the cheapie on Ebay(need a scared icon here)
I cannot sleep. The credit card bill came and reminded me I had spent £200 on fixing the car.
Well at least you lot are doing well.:j
I am offering donkey rides at £10 a time if anyone is interested...:rotfl:
Good luck with tomorrow!
Ahh birds! Today!
