    Hi guys, hope it's OK if I join in!

    Have to confess I am quite ahead of the stakes in the take lunch to work plan - as I live literally right next door to work! So it's more of a case of taking myself home for lunch......

    Will have to spend some money today though, as nothing in the house for mine and OH's tea... off to ASDA for me and fingers crossed for something nice and reduced!

    Online banking says £31 to NatWest and £50 to Barclaycard.

    On top of this, I have to go to 5 pubs in Croydon. It will cost me £5.80 (Oyster card) if I get the train or nothing if I drive.

    I will have to buy two drinks in all pubs and meals in two. This is all expenses and will be paid back, so this doesnt really count.

    Apart from that - I'm hoping to not spend a penny!

    I'm tempted to buy a nice sandwich for lunch but I have a breakfast bar, two bananas and a packet of crisps :whistle: that I could have instead...

    Do I really want a no spender? :think:

    I have to say as I am eating my tinned soup, I am dreaming and salivating over your brakfast bar, two banananas and packet of crisps! :p

    Ever wonder about those people who spend £2 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backward.

    well it ended up as a tenner lent to the boyfriend and £0.30 on a cuppa tea for a workmate... so not a no spend ... but not too expensive (as long as I get me tenner back)...
