How much have/will you spend today Friday 8/12?

Good morning lovely DFWs :)

Friday at last! I am so glad I can have a longer sleep tomorrow (I hope!). I am absolutely shattered :(

Spent £1.14 this morning on a croissant and milkshake, off to add it to my weekly total on the signature.

Have a lovely day and hope we have many successful endings to the challenge :D

Keep it low!

    Hi Moozie, croissant and milkshake sounds mmmmmmmmmmmm, was it plain or did you get the ones with chocolate bits?

    I have a day off today so am sorting out my money. I will be paying a whopping snowball payment of £745 on our sainsburys cc:T . Apart from that I need to get some bread so should be around 80p.

  • Morning Moozie! Mmmmmmm croissant & milkshake.....sounds yummy.

    Well I have spent £1.50 on bus fare and then later I shall be taking out £20 for a few drinks with old mate & taxi home. Want to bring home some change if I can though so I will not update signature till later or tomorrow.

    Oh b*gger I need to get fresh veggies as well and I forgot the shopping list!! :eek:

    Blast.

    Hmmm, will update again later or tomorrow when I am a bit more organised!

    EDIT: Have spent £1.90 on fresh veggies. Bought the two biggest jacket potatoes you have ever seen in your life. I thought someone had shed a load of decorative boulders in Tescos vegetable aisle by mistake. Corrr, they'll be fantastic for dinner tonight!

    So total spends £3.40.
    I'm taking £20 out tonight, if I come back with change then great but I won't expect to. So might as well say spends of £23.40 today but I will update signature again tomorrow when I know what money actually went through my fingers.

    Have a nice evening everyone! :smiley:

    Should be a NSD for me.

    Edit: Ended up working til 8 so got a takeaway on the way home & spent £5 :o
  • Trying to get back in to the swing of things...

    just spent 45p on a Snickers. My boss is meeting me for lunch, but that will be at her expense. Got one more Christmas present to buy and a birthday card so £25 should cover that. And my usual £4 for the car park.

    Have been looking at my finances post holiday and I overdid things a bit and will probably need to slip in to my overdraft soon, but should be back on track by the end of January
    Bank loan - [STRIKE]£9949.52 [/STRIKE]/ £8705.83 * Loan from DH - [STRIKE]£600[/STRIKE]/ £350 * Overdraft - [STRIKE]£0[/STRIKE] £648.47
    Total debt at LBM (09 2006) - £10,549.52 Total debt on 14 Mar 2007 - £9704.30 - 8.1% Paid off
    This week's budget - £20 Spend so far - £32.50
    March's target - keep overdraft below £600 - failed :(

    Proud to be dealing with my debts

    Happy Friday everyone :wave:

    I need to get 8 stamps to send some Christmas cards - is it too early to send them do you think? That will take me £2.33 over budget this week but I can live with that. It still means a weekly spend of under £7.50 - I used to spend that a day on coffees and lunches :j

    This site is amazing and has totally changed my attitude. I still get down days when I feel everything is too much but I know with the help of everyone here that I am really going to make some inroads in to my debt, starting with a vengeance in 2007.
    Dealing with my debt and my weight :D
    Debt at LBM 22/12/08 £33,270
    Debt now £30,100 (9.5% paid off)

    £2 coins saved and banked = £210
