    I have £70.94 to last me til next thursday :eek:.......£20 is marked to get my nails done tomorrow as i promised myself if i lost half a stone i would treat myself and I've lost 8 lbs so I'm still getting them done as i need a treat :rotfl: love how i'm trying to justify :rotfl: it lol

    working this weekend so there will be no need to spend a lot of money and i'm off upstairs to the gym i work with for my workout on sunday then off to my grans sunday after work for my dinner so might just get a nsd in there :p here's hoping which only leaves me to be frugal with monday, tuesday and wednesday

    so you know what i think it might be possible to make £50 spread out til thrusday :j
