    Thanks for your support and suggestions everyone, I think Ive cracked it now! I am going to get him tobacco this afternoon so its nearer to Saturday when he should have another £10 (not popular with him, but liveable with by both of us as he has a little left!) Then buy a bigger pack every 10 days when I do the main shop online, he says that this will easily last him for 10 days and it works out as nearly exactly the same per day as £10 a week does, so now we are both happy again! I just dont think he realised how much he was smoking and how much it was actually costing and its come as a bit of a shock to him!

    hey Janeawej, glad you got it sorted out and that we were able to help a little. That's what were here for, to help each other with life's hurdles no matter how big or small! ;)

    I can't declare a NSD today, but I'm not disappointed.
    Just forked out £2.50 to pay excess on purchases on a gift voucher
    Really wanted to use it up and didn't want the change in another voucher
    Not bad spend for a leather bag and a brooch - hey!?
