  • oops, spent £8.30 on chinese last night (which wasnt nice!) so not much left for the week. My friend wants to go to the cinema tomorrow but I've said no as I don't fancy the film much (havent actually seen a trailer for it yet!) but a few months ago I would have gone anyway. Meant to go out for dinner tonight but I am working and couldn't get a swap so thats saving me money too.

    Evening all

    First post should be up to date let me know if I have missed anything.

    I spent £7 yesterday on food and stuff, I do have a food budget but I spent the cash I had on me so I might as well count it under this budget (I may go back on this depending on how the week pans out ;))

    NSD today which pleases me greatly as these happen to me rather rarely. I have walked to work and also been to the gym so a rather good day all round (need a few more like this:D)

    Total so far £23 / £45

    Good luck Karma

    F_F what happened with the hair? I thought you were going to go red at the hairdressers.

    F_F what happened with the hair? I thought you were going to go red at the hairdressers.

    £4.80 spent today on three pairs of knee socks (I love you Primark!!) and a canvas bag as I left mine at home. I'm in Manchester this week and need a suggestion for somewhere to eat near the train station as I ate in the hotel and got charged (or work did) £3.50 for a side of chips. Fair enough I thought until I received them and there were 5 chips. That's it. Five. Hand-cooked they may have been, but BAH!

    Pointy - my hair last got cut a few weeks ago at the student hairdresser, but I can only go there on certain days and have to take time off work which is a pain. They bleached my hair lighter the last time I went which took a lot of the black out of it, and I'm going to try and do it red this weekend. I'll let you know how it goes!!
