How much have you spent today Friday 20/10?

Good morning DFWs! :)

It's Friday at last! I've had a super busy week and I am just so glad it is nearly over! :j

Have gone over the weekly challenge by a bit but I don't propose to spend anything today. I just want to get today over and go and hibernate :o

Hope you are all having a good day and keeping the spending low!

Moozie x

    Morning Moozie and everyone else!

    I am going for a no spender, the bank has messed up and taken all my DDs that are due on the 25th today. So I am looking about £800 o/d (it's ok, I have an authorised o/d that I don't use), I have spoken to them and they are putting it right but my nice shiny debt free statements are going to have a blemish on them. Good job I have my "me" money in another account to get me through till pay day.
    Had a breakfast meeting so got fed (mmm pastries and muffins) and have got a client lunch so more free food and wine! No dinner for me tonight.

    Have a good weekend everyone, enjoy the wedding Kath!

  • Morning all,so far today I have spent £63.95,this is the bulk shopping for the month ie.washing powder,meat and non perishables and also £10 on petrol for a car I have borrowed until tomorrow:D don't want to put too much in it,just hope £10 is enough :confused:
    Got to get a few more things in Lidl later but will be no more than £5.
    Hopefully that's all the big spending done for another month :rolleyes:
    Have a good day everyone!

    morning all,

    no spend so far, i'm still in my jammies. had a rotten day yesterday, start of my bad week if you get my drift, so chocolate and crisps were called for to ease tummy pains and sore head. oddly enough it worked and i feel much better this morning :j

    however the no spend wont' last, i still need to find a pressie for the baby! was all over town yesterday, no red sparkly baby shoes anywhere, all i could find was a halloween costume in baby gap...and you can guess what that cost! so i'm just about to get dressed and head out once again, got till 2 when i start work. shall be a bad weekend, going to bnq then having chinese with a friend. promise to try harder as of sunday.

    enjoy the weekends folks, don't think i'll manage online till sunday. xx
