    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

    Hello X

    Don't often see you in this thread! Welcome :D

    Hope the deficit is balanced by May.

    £105 rent :o
    £2.28 on lunch
    35p on a paper

    Pretty good, and the urge to get back on Betfair, after Sunday, has waned last few days, so finding it easy to save my cash. :) I may go and buy some oil for my car tomorrow, but it's something I'll have for a while and only need a small amount for any top ups during the winter/spring until my service is due.
    matched betting: £879.63

    Edit: and £23.99 in woolies...

    budget went right out the window today :o

    was hoping for a NSD (worked from home, went to Spurs but was planning on going straight to the game and straight home after) but received a call from an old friend and went to meet him for 'A' drink, £25 later i'm feling guilty as sin and really annoyed with myself for spending money i simply don't have atm :mad:

    Really really annoyed with myself - a few cd's will be going onto ebay tomorrow to try and get some of the money back before Xmas!

    Hi, was just interested when you said £6 on laundry products was about 18 months worth! Just wondering how much you usually spend on laundry and how? :)

    I buy the tesco 48 size boxes of washing tablets with fabric condition in them and throw everything of mine in one wash each week, sometimes using my foot to cram it in. Mostly I use one tablet but mega loads I use 2. I suppose all in one is a man thing :cool:

    Anyway, 48 tablets lasts about 36 weeks and its 3.48 a box (I think) and I already have a spare box in the store cupboard.

    My daughter lives with me 4 days and her mother for 3 but gets her aunty to do her washing.
    Regards
