    £7.53 in asda. but that includes two new tops which can (and will) be worn for work as well as play. plus groceries. the plan is to spend no more money till wednesday...this is highly unlikely these days however :eek:

    Spent a bit on food etc, pleased I got a shredder at £8.99 as uncomfortable about chucking out confidential stuff. So pretty good really.


    Burn the paperwork that is what I do even though I have shredder.

    I hang my head in shame I have been spending today

    £16.18 in boots but did need the stuff and got two freebies for my trouble worth £13 +
    £3.61 in superdrug that included my 10% off

    And then I bought some muffins and reduced milk tonight so that was another £1.55 so I have £3.45 as spendies for the rest of the week. But that should be fine as I don't really need anything else. As I take my lunch everyday.

    Yours

    Hey Gemmzie, might be missing something but I got a really good microwave from Comet for £40. Are you buying a super dooper machine with grill etc?

    Went to Comet - the cheapest half decent one they had was £70 but we are very used to one with a grill
    Father is not DFW-trained (yet ;) ) and also wanted one with a bleeding oven :rolleyes:

    Still, last one lasted for 13+ years

    Ah fair play gemmzie, £180 over 13 years would be great value. The combination grill/oven/microwave are quite a lot more so that sounds like the right price. Just checking! ;)

    I hope it lasts another 13 years! It's the same model as before, just the updated version with an oven

    Wouldn't have been my personal choice with the amount already on his cards - but you can't tell them :rolleyes:

    Yep, another no spend day in the house of Piglet (due entirely to the combination of manky weather/poorly Mr Piglet and, most importantly...not leaving the house:p ). Never mind the reasoning though - its the result that counts!!:rotfl:

    Never had 2 no spend days in a row before...I'm quite excited!:j
