Ha! Caught you!!!
Well actually, I spent £2.95 in the bakery on Monday as DH hadn't done any shopping, so maybe I'll let you off - and there's nothing quite like chinese chips in curry sauce:D:D Making magic with fabricLight travels faster than sound.

Hello! crawling to the finishing line now.... (its been soooooooo hard!) went out on Friday night with oh for something to eat £10 (was a bit more but oh put it in :T)
And this is now the next & final week so I have £31.43 left to spend
I think I can totally do it! But its oh's birthday next month and I've just seen electric toothbrushes are half price at Mr S so am tempted to nab it now and not risk there being any left beginning of feb....
