    £1 for me, hula hoops and diet coke. Couldn't face JUST a tin of soup and it seemed better than going to m&s for a prawn salad ;)

    Hi Bobble_Hat - Well done for standing in for Moozie - it's not the easiest of jobs, as I know. :beer:

    Firstly, I would like to apologise for not posting for a couple of days - I have not been slacking. I went to Tesco, on Tuesday, where I spent the total of £7.66 on my tobacco and some bits for sandwiches. When I got home, I started to feel a bit unwell (flu-ish) and by two o'clock I was in bed, where I remained, other than a couple of hours wrapped in a blanket watching the tv, until this morning. Must be the same bug that's been doing the rounds.
    Only good thing is that I haven't been able to spend. :T :T
    Still - much better today - hope moozie hasn't gone down with anything.

    If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.

    Hi all, thanks for starting the thread bobble!

    I have had a bad spend day, bumped into an old colleague at lunch (I only went out for fresh air and a sarnie from boots) and got roped into going to the pub for lunch instead (ok, I admit she only had to gently twist my arm!) so I have spent £10. Not so bad, I will definitely come in under budget this week. Got (another) work dinner tonight so won't spend anything as long as I get the tube home (or get work to pay for a cab!)

  • £4.00 on little Xmas presents for my Great Nephews.

    Will have to spend £16 later on waxing too :eek: I'd forgotten about this appointment. D'uh.


    Listen.......listen.......BANG.

    That's the sound of my budget just being blown to pieces.

    On the plus side I did *bank* some money today!! :T
    OK only £4.56 but I would have frittered it away otherwise.

  • Queen_B - *LOL* I sometimes think chocolate shouldn't be counted because sometimes, you just gotta. :rotfl:

    cathybird - Hope you managed a NSD :)

    Batfink - Ahhh, I'm sure you'll look great in whatever you wear. And you love it really. :p

    bobbadog - £1 is much better than a pricey prawn salad, so well done :T

    iceicebaby - Well done, and enjoy the decorating.

    black-saturn - Useful and by the sounds of it, for that price, very DFW. :T

    rog2 - Glad to hear you're not too under the weather. I have to admint Moozie's shoes are difficult to fill, she is very good at it. :)

    Imelda - Still under budget and caught up with friends, I would call that a good day. :beer:

    Mrs(no)money - Not a bad day for you, are you making anything exciting with the pastry? Mince pies? :xmassmile

    inspiremetosave - Well done on a NSD :T

    emylou - Well done on Debt repayments, I think you deserved a little something as a treat too.

    LookingAhead - I keep booking things in then forgetting to add to my budget! Well done on banking some though. :T
