  • evening!

    thanks tabatha. Double checked the water bill (which came last week), and yep, that amount it right. We're not on a meter, so i guess thats the standard welsh water rate for my area. Not sure if I want to look into having a meter or not......

    Glad Im just over the border ! We are council tax band C and mine is £11.54 !

    Hi Cazzle, just popping on to say hi :) I've just caught up with your diary.

    How is reducing the grocery spend going?
    Currently studying for a Diploma - wish me luck :)

    Phase 1 - Emergency Fund - Complete :j
    Phase 2 - £20,000 Mortgage Fund - Underway
  • £11.54 for water???!!!!! God that's good! In that case yes, £57.50/month is pricey!

    Hi Smlsave - not sure yet about the grocery shop - I'm adding things up as I go along and plan on reviewing after a month, so I'll keep you posted!

    Thursday, I think was a NSD for me, though OH spent £26 on protein shake powder from the gym (cheaper than spending £3 on a shake each time, and should last a few months).
    Yesterday again was a NSD for me. I haven't seen the OH so not sure if he spent anything, though it seems that he buys a drink on most days.

    I'm spending the day with mother cazzle and sister cazzle today - we're off to London for the day to see a show - it was my mums birthday pressie so that was paid for ages ago. We normally go for a cuppa and then for lunch, but mum pays for that! Overall it should be quite a cheap day for me! Yey!

    Will check in in a day or 2.....
