    Just a wee bit of grocery shopping for me today - at home being sneezy and snotty, so hopefully shouldn't be tempted with anything else...

    Have a good day :)

    £1.10 on a pain au chocolat at the station that i REALLY didn't need - especially as lurpack were giving out free croissants and jam in town today! I've brought lunch from home though that would normally cost £4/5, so I guess I'm still making a profit on a 'normal' day!Until last night I hadn't spent anything all week, but we cracked and had a kebab £4 each for tea! still. £5.10 in a week is better going than my old habits.

    i spent 4.99 on two innocent smoothies, 4 apples, and some blueberries.
    The innocent smoothies at sainsbury's were 50p off if you buy two, and as they are weakness of mine i thought i would get them. However, when i got in to work and checked my receipt i noticed the 50p hadnt been taken off. I would never have normnally noticed except the other day after reading some post on here i have decided to keep a spend diary. So now i am going back to Sainsbury's tomorrow morning to get my bloody 50p off. Do you think i will be successful with this ? its a little out of charcter for me to bother doing it but i am thinking if i am going to so much trouble to cut back and save money and pay my debts off then i want my 50p they promised me lol. Other than that i am going to the pub for a pint of beer at lunch. I've had two spend free days and as i am on call at mo can't drink at night anyway so i thoguht i would reward myself with a beer with work colleagues
