Evening fizzy, well done on getting all those things for £20 thats fab!!

Glad you dusted off that Wii and did your 30 mins, I only did 12 mins tonight haha!!! 12mins on the Wii is better than sat on the settee though isnt it?!

Hope your feeling ok x x

i was worn out when i did my first 30 mins!! :eek: getting a bit used to it now though, im the hula hoop champion in my house :cool:
boys really enjoy it too.

it is absolutly chucking it down with rain again!!! :mad: boys have after school club today so i dont pick them up till 4.30 then ds1 has swimming lessons. going to stay in today and do a couple of things around the house at least then i cant spend no money on rubbish!!
will have to put £10 on gas at some point today but it is lasting so much longer then it was a month ago so starting to save money there.
paid the odd 20p from my bank into my savings yesterday so need to check today and transfer any more across if i can.

my petrol has lasted well this week, i will put £20 in tomorrow as i do this every weekend, but my petrol light hasnt even come on yet.

Well done on getting the petrol to last longer - mine just seems to vanish!! lol and on the gas lasting longer. Your doing so well with your jan grocery challenge!
Have a good weekend

i admit i havent been far this week and that is probably why my petol has lasted but i suppose if i put petrol in my car tomorrow the needle will be higher then last week as not on the red yet so ill have more in the long run and if i carry on not driving far i might have a full tank in a few weeks if i carry on putting £20 a week in!!! at least then if i become seriously broke i wont have to worry about petrol!!! :cool:

didnt buy a drink tonight whilst watching ds1 swim and i didnt put gas on either so been a nsd today :j
will be a high spend day tomorrow though as i need to put petrol in will put gas on and do weekly food shopping, definatly going to lidls tomorrow as im sure i dont spend as much as when i go to asda. im going to catch up on the soaps and get an early night i think. god i sound old!!!

*Twizzle*

Fizzy you are doing so well x GC is geat, you are doing a lot better than me!

I don't have a wii fit:( what i do have though is a dog! I take im for a 'march' for 1/2 an hor every day and have gone down 1 1/2 dress sizes :j and its free (apart from dog food and insurance )

thanks spike, i also have a dog and he does keep me busy
i enjoy walking him in the local woods but i always end up getting lost and think im going to be kidnapped :eek:

i went shopping at lidl today and spent £24.56 :j
got some bits for a stew, roast dinner and some frozen bits and also some general fruit, veg, juice etc. still got a few other bits of meat in the freezer so should be ok for this week. also put £20 in the car and £10 on the gas. hopefully next week i will just need elec, gas and top up shop (milk bread etc)
still need to pay for ds1 after school club so will give the school a cheque on monday. going to start dinner in a bit then the boys want to get the wii fit out again!!! :cool:

fizzypops

ha a nice lie in today the boys didnt get up until 9.30

just transfered 0.07p into my fund for car tax so have about £9.00 in there now :cool: im also going to bag up all my change by mid april so i can use that towards it too. i think i have about £10 in the pot at them moment but will keep adding my loose change to it.

ds2 has swimming lessons today so just going to stay at home this morning so apart from spending money on a cup of tea later hopefully i wont spend any more money today.
