Is it the end, or just the beginning.....?

I'm here

Was indeed a late night - ended up at Vodka Revolution Oh I was so ill _pale_, But, no chance to have a hangover, as I had some adult ed work I needed to do at 10am......so the alarm went off as usual, and I headed out.

Then this afternoon I had my hair coloured, and legs waxed, so a bit of a "me" afternoon. Just home, via M&S where I stocked up on their various "for £5" offers which are just bargainous, I have to say, and I will be having a lazy evening, as I prepare for a long run in the morning.

So, thanks for missing me! I hope you have all had a good day x

Do you (or anyone else!) know how long the various £5 offers are on for? I've been doing a mountain of housework today, having got rid of Mr Fresian for the afternoon, so haven't had time to do a proper shop this weekend. If there's bargains to be had in M&S I'll go there then Morrisons instead of hitting Aldi tomorrow.

I would guess that they will be on again tomorrow.

I got 2 of the "casserole for £5" - one lamb and one chicken. I also got a "roast for £5" which was a joint, a bag of root veg (parsnips or carrots), a bag of green veg (brocolli, sprouts or french beans) and a bag of spuds (either new or roasting)....very very good value.

I also hit the perfect time in the shop and managed to pick up some yellow stickered stuff for the freezer - a very successful trip, I have to say!

de lurkers to say :" the M&S offer will continue for at least another week"
goes back to lurk!

hypno06

those offers sound good...think I may pop in tomorrow.

They certainly make shopping at M&S a whole lot more cost effective than usual, and it always makes you feel a little more rich if you are bringing something out of the fridge/freezer with the M&S logo on rather than Morrisons or Tesco!

So....plan for today is to have coffee, porridge, and get out there for a long run.....then once I have showered and had another coffee I am going to collect my Nana and bring her here - she has not seen my new house yet - and I will cook dinner for us all before taking her back again. This evening I will do the ironing and have a fairly early night.

MSE wise, I have spent a fair bit this weekend so far, but almost all budgeted, so the only spend today will be petrol. Payday is still 10 days away, so I need to be careful, but on the basis our food stores are fairly high, I think we just need bread, milk and fruit between now and then.

Have a good day, whatever you have planned xx

Liking the offers Hypno, may pop in there today as I have some vouchers. I am feeling a bit delicate. As I couldn't go to Edinburgh I just got trolleyed here instead. What a grand idea!!!!

I must have byesterday I cleared the pile of clean washing into its rightful places, spruced up the kitchen and put new (unironed ) sheets on the bed.

I was exhausted after all that so had an early night and woke up rested.

Did you notice if there was a vegetarian alternative for the roast as it doesn't say on their website? Cheers!
