What have you spent/will you be spending today? Tuesday 5th December

Am up early so thought I'd declare "I'm having a No Spend Day" especially after yesterdays little treat :o
It shouldn't be too hard as seeing that I'm off work I'm looking after 2y old nephew whilst SIL revises, I have no intention of going to shops & won't be able to shop online with him running around :rotfl:

Have a good day everyone
Married my wonderful husband February 2013!:happyhear
I want to wear my beautiful wedding dress everyday- it would make shopping so much more fun, I mean, people go shopping in their pyjamas these days.......
Must STOP spending!!! :)
Proud to be dealing with my debts!

    NSD here. Have nice homemade sandwhich for lunch instead of a tin of soup, which will make me far less likely to wander over to the delicious M&S opposite. We have FAR too many veggies in the fridge, so will have to make something very veggie tonight.

    Thought it was job 2 payday today, but it isn't. Booo. Was going to do some Christmas shopping. Ahh well! Love to you all x

    Morning all!

    I am spending today, got a couple of Christmas presents to buy, 24 stamps for Christmas cards, some vitamins (the party season is already beginning to take its toll), moisturiser (have a voucher to use) and lunch (didn't bring with me, bread I bought yesterday has already gone mouldy!!). I am estimating £12 + Christmas present (this comes from a separate budget so I am not counting it in my spends).

    Have a good day everyone!

    Good morning!

    Well done Emylou on the early start :D

    Windy, wet and horrid this morning! I look like I've been dragged through a hedge backwords :(

    Not spending anything today. Feel tired and fed up and want to go home to a tidy one with no boxes, no mess and nice smellss all around instead of bleach and other cleaning stuff!

    I know...I am asking too much :(

    Have a lovely day everyone!
    Leason learnt :beer:
  • Hope you feel better later Mooz!

    I may have to pop out later to get another photo frame (on the cheap) and some rice. Didn't have to get bus today (got a lift) so that's saved me £1.50!
    I will report back later......

    I would like a NSD today but think I will have to get milk on the way home, unless kindly OH has already done so.

    I need to get a few bits in Boots but am able to use the £15 gift card Boots sent to me after I complained about some appalling service I received in one of their stores, so no money will leave my warm little mitts. Thank you Boots :j

    Have a good day everyone.
    Dealing with my debt and my weight :D

    Groceries for the week should come to no more than £20, and I've got to get a card. Otherwise, the Queen should be looking at the inside of my wallet for a change.
    Overpay!

    For me its shopping day, budgeted at £22. I'm more interested in how much I can come in under budget and not spend. My spreadsheet has a £49 deficit predicted for next May and I hope to be 2 or 3 quid closer after my shop today.
    Regards
