  • Not spent a bean today. Been at work all day and was provided with 2 course roast dinner and then a few chips for dinner. Had terrible wind since the cabbage at lunch time - ha!

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

    welcome jill
    Coucou24.gif basically mozzie likes to keep us all in trim so we all have to give a bugdet (as little or as much as we like) for sunday to friday (inclusive) and we all post everyday what we spend and then on sunday we post our totals and see if we stick in budget... i class it as 'extra' spends ie not bils/direct debits... a bit of fun really but it stops me buying stuff as i have to answer to mozzie :rotfl:

    Spot on little PAP! :rotfl:

    Welcome on board Jill and anyone else that's having a look in ;) Set your self a target for how much you want to spend between today and Friday and off we go. Like PAP I only include spending money - no bills or weekly shopping or anything like that.

    Good luck :)

    Hi Moozie,

    No spend Sunday - Aiming at a £30 max spend this week as I have two interviews and will need a haircut and petrol.
    I am NOT, nor do I profess to be, a Qualified Debt Adviser. I have made MANY mistakes and have OFTEN been the unwitting victim of the the shamefull tactics of the Financial Industry.
    If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.

    Hi Moozie, didn't do too badly yesterday.We went for a drive and a trip to the coast to re-visit the Antony Gormley figures at Crosby beach(they are fantastic and well worth a visit) Took butties, a bottle of water,and fruit so pretty DFW. Free parking at Crosby leasure centre.Dh decidd that he NEEDED to have some chocolate so spent 50p in the laure centre vending machine. Really enjoyed the day and then joy oh joy found £15!!!!(was money i'd forgotten about) I have this reversable jacket that i HATE but good for windy beach, anyway, was fishing arround for tissue and came accross a scrunched un £10 & £5. God alone only knows how long its been there-thought i'd searched EVERYTHING at least 10 times!!!! Still VERY nice.
