  • Spent £20 in Tesco - Had to buy 4 pillows (£1.47 each in Mr T's) as guests coming to stay tonight and we have no spares (not long moved house). Flowers for Mum's grave (would have been her birthday today) and the rest was food.
    Did use Clubcard vouchers so got 120 points - worth £4.80 :money:

    Think we will be staying in tonight so saving money there :money:
  • I've spent £5. £4 at the cheap body stuff shop, bought some hair clips, a comb. some body puffs, and some Haribo sweets for my boyfriend.
    Then I went to a sale at the library with my dad and got 15 books for a pound:T .
    Later on, I'm going out for a meal with my boyfriend, but it's a mystery shopping assignment, so I can claim the money back for the meal, and get an extra tenner back too :j
    Won't be spending anything else tonight as I'll be staying in with a nice bottle of wine to watch the X-Factor

    Spent £34.38p in Tesco but had received a £10 voucher through the post so it only cost me £24.38 :)

    Not going out again so won't be spending anymore. I am quite new to this and finding it quite a challenge at the moment to curb my spending.
