How much have you spent today Saturday 21/10?

Options
Good afternoon DFWs :)

Hope you are all have a good day! I've had a very leisurely morning following my hectic week - just what I needed!

Went out for a bit with the OH and it was lovely! :love: We had a gorgeous meal and then a browse around the shops. I bought a couple of bits for the house so I spent £17.97 all together. Much lower than my usual Saturdays :rotfl:

I think we are off to the flicks tonight, if we find something we agree on watching :rolleyes: Have a lovely evening everyone :beer:

    My first no spend day in ages!

    Hopefully by tomorrow or Monday I won't have to go to the swimming pool for a shower in the mornings (and spend 20p on drying my hair!!) Our new bathroom is finally finished 8 weeks after the shower broke and flooded the house! :D

    Hi Moozie

    Sounds like you are having a lovely weekend...
    Enjoy the flicks later, you worked hard all week so deserve some time out:D

    I, on the other hand, am home alone with a huge pile of washing, but hey, these things have to be done and at least the sun is shining now!:D

    OH will be home soon and we'll be sharing a bottle of wine and time together later :love:

    Spending today - nil! havent been out, unlike some;)

    Enjoy the rest of the weekend!

    I have a confession to make:o
    every time I have said I have had a no spend day I have been lying (I think!:confused: )
    I deposited £2 in2 william hills account a while ago (in september) and have been putting bets on (2p e/w!:rotfl: :cool: ) but I am £2.67 in credit and waiting for some more to run 2day! so is it really spending?!
    Aprt from that nowt cos I am completely skint until payday next week (and also have no food in!):eek: :T :rotfl:

    OH gone out to spend £10 on a shower curtain as it has mould on it and we have already bleached it to death in the past. We have relatives about to arrive for 3 nights (we have no standards any more but we don't want to shock them!) We've also run out of dishwasher powder so that may be about £3.50 or so. Grrrrr hate spending money.

    You're all going to look like angels compared to my spend today::o

    I had an eye test last week and need glasses - so today I spent £169 on a new pair of glasses (one of the cheaper pairs in the opticians, but I did like them anyway)

    The DH and I went and brought a wardrobe and two bedside cabinets as most of my clothes now live on the bedroom floor due to lack of storage space: total £387.

    Then we went food shopping and spent £37.

    Total for today: £593:eek:

    However all necessary stuff and we have been talking about getting the wardrobe for ages and have saved up in advance
    Total Debt November 2016 =£9,660.52 :mad:

    Monthly Repayments = £593.09 :eek:

    Goal to be debt free December 2017/ Savings £500 :T
