Not been a very good day really.
Went to Farmer's Market and spent £43, some cards £2.80
Lunch £4.00 and some chips, peas & gravy to go with tea £2.55.
Grand total £9.35 from my purse, as Farmers comes out of food budget.Official DFW Nerd Club - Member no: 203.0 -

Oh yes! Lots of fun had today with my lovely friend!
Firstly, lunch, which lovely friend paid for (including a bottle of wine).
Secondly, theatre, which I paid for. £18 plus £3 for [STRIKE]sobering up[/STRIKE] interval coffees. Absolutely brilliant production and real star quality. Moving, funny, uplifting and heart-stopping.
Thirdly, Primark - bought a top for £4 (oh, the restraint!).
Total spend - £25.

Good going on the tobacco. I had noticed it doesn't feature as much on your spending lately
Hope you stop it all together soon.
Thanks Moozie - I have to say that I don't honestly feel ike giving up smoking - I know the dangers and would NEVER advocate smoking to ANY non-smoker - I have tried, and failed, on numerous occasions, to stop. Maybe lack of willpower, but I do enjoy a smoke having been brought up in a generation where the dangers of smoking, whilst known, were kept from the public in the interests of revenue :mad: :mad:
Enough said - I kept to my budget - almost - £4.66 tobacco, £1.11 milk and, hanging head in shame 48pence on an ASDA 200 gramme value bar of Milk Chocolate (hope it's as good as Tesco's) - Total spend for Saturday £6.35 :T

Well done wb - just because you are in debt it doesn't mean that you should be dishonest as well. :T What goes around comes around and you'll be rewarded for your honesty one day. :AI am NOT, nor do I profess to be, a Qualified Debt Adviser.
