afternoon peeps :wave:

Today was a spend day, had the morning to myself so walked into town and back, paid my gran back the £225 she gave me about a year ago to get a carpet for living room so need to update signature which takes me over my target for the year woo hoo

bought 5 white picture frames from wilkinsons for £5 each which i thought was a bargain as they are quite big and exactly what i'm looking for, bought a lovely long top from dorothy perkins was £26 reduced to £10 and no it wasn't a impulse buy i really liked it when it was full price but couldn't justify the cost lol and it was the only one left and in a size 12 which fits perfectly so it must be FATE :rotfl: got some fresh veg from lidls for my lunch today and got guinea pig food half price as one of the pet shops are closing down so it was half price lol :T oh and i got my eyebrows done for £5.50 bloody nipped lol

hope everyone is well x

Well done on meeting your target, thats fantastic!

I can't wait to go and see Pirates of the Carribean, I've heard really good things about it so I'm looking forward to it.

Going to prob be adding to my debt at the weekend as my brother has informed me at his work they have new tv's in and that they are £299 plus he'll get 10% off too plus i can take it over 6 months interest free credit so i'm very tempted as i've been promising the kids a new tv for the living room for 2 years now and i'll need to get one before xmas as i'm getting the kids a xbox with kinect and i need a tv which has a hdmi cable.........yes my tv is old just now is over 7 years now which would be getting moved into my room lol

I can afford it and it would be getting paid off before xmas.............it's terrible that i've just came on here to justify it lol ain't it lol

Hi Abba

I think we would all agree that you have done fantastically and don't need to justify anything to anyone. If you want a new tv and can afford it, then have it. You deserve a treat for all your hard work and the brilliant way that your teaching your kids the value of money.
Knowing you, you'll have paid it off way before the 6 months is up anyway.

Enjoy it xxxx
