  • Hi all

    Just my slimming world expenses today, so £4.25 for the class (sadly nowhere near target yet!) and £1 for the raffle, so £5.25 today.

    I've not got my car this week, so no popping out at lunchtimes, so saving money. :money:

    im well happy today, spent under a £5 but best of all i had a high :eek: bill from tmobile for £65 but they screwed up big time, i wrote them a complaint letter regarding the situation and i have just had a phonecall to say that as a goodwill gesture they are willing to set that bill which is my final one to ZERO im so glad as i didnt know how i was gonna pay for it anyway as im so skint.:money: :D

    i also wrote o2 as they messed me around too, all they managed to come up with was 20 free texts and a £10 off my next bill hence i wrote back asking for a more satifactory compensation so just waiting for that one now.......:cool:

    Today is a good day as I have had soup for lunch and it was somebody's birthday at work so I had a cake which was a nice treat. I've driven the car into work today, so normal fuel usage on 22 miles and hopefully that is it! Already got dinner out of freezer (value chicken so will need to jazz it up a bit!)

    Tomorrow will also be good as I have to go to a meeting midday and lunch is provided!

    £90 :eek: My half of the gas and electric bill (It's halved since last year though coz i'm not working from home as often :j )

    I also need soap powder tabs, loo roll, milk and something for dinner. I now make it a habit to head straight to the reduced section. On occasion you find amazing deals! :j Here's hoping ;)

    Have a good day everyone :D

    So, the good news is that I finally made target! :D I've been half a pound off for over a month and my consultant told me that when I did it I'd do it in style, and she was right. I lost 2 and a half pounds this week :j The bad news is that I still had to pay last night, my free sessions start from next week.

    Oh what fantastic news!!! Thank you very much for sharing :beer: What can I say, I am really pleased for you and I hope you treat yourself to something really lovely.

    Well done! :T :j :T :j :T :T

    Oh and you're forgiven! ;)

  • It won't be a NSD because the car is in the workshop and the plumber has just been to fix a tap.............
    However I am working from home so no petrol. Am just finishing home made soup for lunch so feeling rather virtuous.
    Had to go out to Post Office to pay in a cheque and bought some stamps for my overseas Christmas cards which will need to be posted soon. These are actually budgeted for separately but because I have had a reasonable week on cash spending I paid for them out of what is left over from the grocery budget.
    And finally I called into the library on the way back - free books (I used to spend £££s on paperbacks I would only ever read once - pre LMB obviously).

    Well done to those losing weight. I need to get back to that but at the moment I feel as though all my willpower is being used up by my DFW activities!
