Well done! :beer: First step is the hardest.
I've made my own sandwiches for lunch - I keep stuff in the fridge at work. The lettuce and alfalfa sprouts were home grown. Tonight when I get home, I'm hoping there will be my first 3 tomatoes ripe and ready on my balcony for tomorrow's butties. :T Had some crisps with my lunch too, but my boss bought them for me and said not to worry about the cash - yeah!
We've also had ice creams/lollies this afternoon - and as I am the manager I justified raiding the petty cash tin for staff treats to keep us all going in this hot weather!
Not going out tonight - possibly the gym - so will have had a spend free day. Hurrah!0 -
It's payday tomorrow and I'm still in credit at the bank ( 2nd month in a row). I had to go into town to get my hair cut, had a quick browse round Evans & M&S, but didn't even consider buying anything. Did a mystery shopping assignment on my way home (my first one!). Did the weekly shop at Lidl, where I was served by a charming and handsome young man!Official DFW Nerd No 096 - Proud to have dealt with my debt!0

I went on the Boden (clothing) website after a tempting sale email from them. Put £62 worth of clothes in my shopping basket then cancelled the order. I don't NEED them and I wouldn't have bought them if they hadn't been in the sale anyhow.
