    No spends yesterday, came back from a weekend away which was budgetted for elsewhere, but the £10 I had has been reduced following a requirement to fill the car with petrol, so I'll actually need to spend less than £5 this week! Wish me luck!

    Hope you feel better soon. I spent nothing today. Is it bad to want to change into PJs as soon as you get home to stop yourself going out and spending?!

    Hehe it's entirely acceptable in my book! On my last days off, I didn't get dressed for well over 24 hours and my housemate was appalled... but I didn't need to leave the house so what was the point! Well done on giving yourself a break and buying that ticket.... all future treat purchases are hereby banned ;)

    Thanks guys, I'm sure a dose of the new inbetweeners series in 45 minutes will make me feel a whole lot better!!
  • Had a NSD yesterday!! Need to get some shopping in today hopefully I can stick to my list though!!
