    Today I spent £8 at M&S on reduced kids' stationery - £3 and £1 down to 50p
    (and 3 for 2)
    £9.60 school trousers for DD

    Took pack up to work.
    DMP starts June 2012, £38,180.

    Balance June 2015 £26,046 (paid off 32%)

    DMP mutual support thread no 434
  • Erm... £4.40 on cinema ticket that can be claimed back from work
    and £3.50 on lunch
    and then £8 odd in Asda and have since made some flapjacks (thanks OldStyle board for easy peasy receipe) - had some bad news this afternoon (which made my mates laugh, nasty mean beggers!) and I felt like blowing this year's budget on prawn crackers and chow mein... but I managed to rein myself in.

    Not a great day on the spending front, but it could have been worse... way worse!

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

    Tomorrow will be a different story though.
