    Of course you can tazzy - welcome!

    Good luck and make something for your lunch tonight, stick it in the fridge overnight ready to take out when bleary eye'd in the morning!

    I like to take leftovers and reheat in the microwave or make some soup and freeze up in portions, then defrost overnight in the fridge and take in the next day for lunch

    What do you like?

    Also - well done true! Day 1 out of the way and bring on the rest of the month!

  • Evening all,

    To avoid temptation I didn't go into town at lunch time, this is sitting nicely with not buying lunch at work challenge!

    One down, 30 to go!

    well done littlemiss!

    A good idea - I need to leave my purse at home then I cannot be tempted to spend during lunch time. It's a hard time isn't it? I'll just pop in here and nip in there?

  • I didn't even notice today! I need to think of more things to add to my list... although the credit card one is a toughy. however, the only one I still have in my purse is maxed out which means I can't use it!

    Nothing bought here either..... I did buy a shower gel for OH but he's nearly run out anyway....

    Yesterday was the test with the Body Shop offer.... but I resisted the urge as I still have a reasonable stash of things to use :o

    On hols from work til Monday, so no food bought there (is that cheating?!) and no urge to buy clothes etc.... although the weekly email has come from Schuh today :D

    I brought a posh lunch to work, didn't buy any toiletries (or anything else, for that matter! :j), didn't have the chance for a walk (but it's not on my plan for today), didn't practice music cos I spent this morning planning my month and ate some sweets while not thinking about it, but then stopped once I realised (oops! :o)
