How much have/will you spend today Thu 31/8?

today hasn't quite worked out as I thought earlier (see this mornings post)
Cost of stamp 32p
trip to tip around 1.00 in petrol but I also used the journey to drop off some stuff to the charity shop where I picked up a perfect birthday pressie for 50p (anyone else believe in Karma?)
decided not to order carpets yet but let them sweat. If they refuse to honour the offer - so what? Plenty of carpet shops!
However I did go on to spend;
£1 on a pair of jeans (half price in CS sale)
£1.50 on material (perfect match for my needs - see earlier post)
£1.50 on book (possible later Amazon sale)
£1 on treats for my 2 dogs and the 1 i'm 'dogsitting'
but I gained £25 by arguing charges in Lloyds TSB. So I'm still well up on the day.
Hope others have a good day too.

I was supposed to attend a job interview today, but it has been postponed for 3 weeks while the interviewee is on paternity leave. Therefore no tube fare.
So today I dont have any cash outgoings, but have paid £250 onto my Halifax card and £350 onto my MBNA card by BACS.
Hopefully I will not spend anything else today!0 -
Hi all,
I had a no spender yesterday and today is a sort of no spend but I do have to buy a present for a friend's birthday but this is in my budget so I don't count it (I already consider it as money already spent).Saving for an early retirement!0 -
