Back at work yesterday, but didn't spend any money on food so that was a result.
Work again later but will take food in from home to stop myself wasting money again.0 -
Bought lunch today at work, naughty me, but I always find Fridays difficult when I start early. I managed to grab some bargainous waybuloo party items yesterday so have popped them on Ebay on my business account. Hope they sell.
Also got up to withdrawal on JPJ tonight so hoping that will land early next week.

Hi,
Hope you are good! I haven't popped in in ages. Hope your DD has a great birthday!
I always seem to buy myself lunch on a Friday too, naughty!0 -
We have had a fab weekend. DD's party with her friends went really well and the sun shone all afternoon for our family bbq. Everyone had fun and we have enough food and drink left over to not need to shop this week which is a result and will help the bank balance.
I've just paid almost £300 off the credit card. The amount is still too high but coming down is better than going up.
The photobook I ordered for free last week arrived today and it's lovely. I'll put that away for my Dad' birthday next month. I've also just ordered a mug for father's day from the grabbit board and only paid £1.99 postage, so I'll get him some lynx shower gel from Morrisons as it's on offer and stick that with it.0 -
Argh, I forgot fathers day is sneaking up! I'm glad you got nice weather, it's a shame it has gone for now though

It's been a good day today, some bits I've bought for resale have been consistently selling on ebay. I also got a £3 bonus for bingo and managed to win £25. That left £2 of bonus money left and I then won another £10.
Waiting for the 1st lot to hit my acc and then I'll withdraw the second lot.0 -
I managed not to spend any money whilst at work yesterday so I transferred £3 into the savings acount. There is not a lot left in the house, but I have made some beef mince kebabs as we have some green salad that needs to be eaten, so it'll be that and potato salad.
I kept the shopping budget to £50 this week and have done a meal plan so hopefully it'll work and we wont need to spend anything other than more bread and milk.0 -
I bought lunch today for work
really peeved with myself, but the cupboards were literaly almost bare.
On the good side today I have sold two personalised bookmarks from my website, and I got a free £10 bet so bet on a draw for tomorrow's england match.0 -
Well we drew, so that's £33 better off I am from a free bet. Result! Al day I have been wondering whether I should have matched it. Obv glad I didn't now.0
