    HI all,

    Very expensive day so far as had to pay the car tax and had to go 40 miles away to DVLA office as no registration document since I moved house. I've only paid for 6months so we can pay the full 12months in May (I must must must put money aside each month for this!)

    Otherwise just got some cheap rolls for lunch and don't plan on spending on anything else!

    Woohoo! Spend for today is only 65p!

    I had to get some rice from Tescos and also wanted some herbal tea for my desk and a few other bits. Then I remembered I had a £2.50 voucher in my purse so I only had to pay the extra....which was the 65p.

    So that's it for today and I have two boxes of herbal tea now as one of them was half price as discontinued so that'll keep me going a while.

    Just got back from shopping. Budget was not £22 but £40 as I forgot I had planned to get a big gammon joint and mince pies in this week for xmas.
    Anyway, spent 31.58, so 8.42 under budget. There is loads of fruit and veg reduced to half price and marked 'to clear' in Tesco's again this week. This seems to be some sort of offer.
    Got 2 coupons. 20 points for spending 80p on apples, easy one that as I buy the 90p value bags. The other was 150 points for spending £6 on laundry products. Thats about 18 months worth so I'll bin that one.

    I'll have to go now, I have 8 kilo's of onions to peel and chop for the freezer :eek:
    Regards
