It must be a weekend thing!
After a really good week I've slipped a bit and have to confess to £3.20 today - two diet cokes and lunch.
Total remaining £56.30
I am redeeming myself by going round to the oldies tonight for dinner though

Definitely a Friday Thing! My OH just rang me to say his boss is shouting him dinner. Wish i hadn't defrosted a whole pack of chicken breasts (planning curry) now. Booo... Peanut butter on toast and one of Emmzi's skinny cow cones would go down far better0 -

£10.58 on weekly shop and £3.56 on McDonalds (I know I know).
Its about half what I usually spend :A but I still think I could have gone lower - I did throw in a few chocolate bars and a notebook (for keeping all the stuff I pick up from OS board in. I keep losing the scraps of paper I normally scribble on) that even I wouldnt say I needed but I only bought the ones on special offer.
Total remaining £41.06 :jThe early bird gets the worm but the second mouse gets the cheese :cool:0 -
