    Good morning :D

    Thank you Imelda for starting the thread! Mad rush at work this morning and it's not likely to stop all day. Still, makes the day go faster and that's all that matters :)

    Today will be a non spender for me. Got lunch and snacks with me and although I have to go out at lunch time, I am paying money in the bank ;) and not spending a penny! Visiting a friend this evening and don't need to take anything with me apparently so a definite non spender :j

    Two more days until the weekend people and the end of the challenge! Hang in there, we can do it! I want lots of happy challengers reporting good results on Friday :T

    Have a good day and keep it low!
    Leason learnt :beer:

    No spend day for me again, third one in a row :j :j :j

    I really need an envelope though to send a letter to the bank about my charges, normally our posts full of return ones but typically because ive ran out I cant find one anywhere grrrr! Going to see my sister in a bit though so should be able to pinch one off her!

    Think this week I might actually be sucessful in my challenge.....(touch wood!)

    It's not that difficult to not spend if you box clever is it......

    All those years of £5 per day on lunch.... What was i thinking.

    Not been that good for me today-unfortunately.

    Clinique soap £12 ( I can't use anything else coz my skin is so sensitive and I can't wait to order from ebay)
    £13 in M&S (a wee top) really need a whole pile of new clothes.
    £10 petrol
    £2.29 washing tabs

    All essential but still hate spending all the same.
