    definitely a no-spender for me today, unless the roof falls off the house between now and midnight or something, which let's face it is unlikely. Hurrah!! I've gone to three stars too - happens at 551 posts, I was wondering when it would happen!! (yes this is really a very minor issue but I was irrationally pleased to see it anyway)
  • Happy birthday PiggyBanker!

    Today is a no spender for me (I bought a spending diary notebook on Friday evening, and still not had anything to write in it - hurrah). I've just home as I had a few hours lieu time owing to me. I'm not going to let myself go out again because that will mean going past the newsagents and I will hear the chocolate bars calling...

    Instead, I'm going to make myself a massive hot chocolate here at home and snuggle up with my book for a while before tackling the ironing - joy of joys!


    ooopps! Fell asleep while reading book, feel rather groggy now...at least I've not gone out and spent!

  • No Spend Day here too. Work, casting for the Christmas play, picked kids up, home, planning for tomorrow, ironing - what an exciting life I lead! Luckily my Mam gave me my tea (and the kids too!) so didn't have that to make - shpeherd's pie, mmmm!

    Hi everyone

    I have to spend £1.44 at the library because my book is overdue :o

    Then I'm meeting a couple of friends for a drink because I'm 30 today! Will try to limit what I spend though, and make up for it with extra earning while I'm on leave from my main job this week.

    Have a good Monday!
    Piggy

    Can't believe I missed your birthday but saw the library fine! I am so sorry PB :(

    I hope you are having a lovely birthday and many happy and debt free returns!!! :bdaycake: :kisses3:

    Hi Moozie, glad to see you're back in your old form. I'm a bit depressed with this lack of work, and, to be honest, so is my wife. Anyway I only have £20, so that is my budget for this week.
    So far, I have spent nothing:beer:

    I missed you this weekend rog2. I sort of assumed you were busy with your daughter but I kept looking to see if you'd made an appearance.

    I am sorry about the lack of work. Wish there was something I could do. I am sending you all my positive vibes and here's hoping something turns up very soon :grouphug:

    Edit: Well done on the NSD - hope many more follow! ;)

    :wave: Afternoon Moozie - hello everyone :wave:
    I've spent £9.51 on Ebay postings (so I guess that doesn't count). Oh and I bought a Cracker, Morse and a couple of those free newspaper DVD's CD's for 30p each from a charity shop at lunchtime. There are some good kids one's among the bunch so might put them on Ebay.
    Total: 3.10p.
    love Sas x

    Welcome back and don't you dare go away again Sas! :p

    Just back from my lunch out and I've spent:
    £1.20 car park
    £7.55 lunch
    £12.00 3 for 2 gifts from boots (DD going to a birthday party this week, now have 2 more birthday gifts to use for another time)

    Ok so that's £20.75 but then I did something .....spent £9 on a pair of earings. Do I need them NO, Can I afford them NO. Someone give a good kick, like I am doing to myself now!:o

    Total spend £29.75 now £4.75 over weekly challenge budget already.:eek:

    themaccas, you give me no choice but to send you to the naughty step! :eek: I believe 1 minute for each of your years is the norm and no cheating! :naughty:

    Ah no point torturing yourself over them sweetie. They can't go back anyway. Just make sure you wear them lots and get a lot of enjoyment out of them. Hope you had a good catch up with your friend.
