    HI everyone :) Not done this for a while, seems I'm in the same boat as a few others too. Really gone down hill with the spending so going to join in again this month :j please put me down for £300
    Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend...


  • £250 for me this month please .
    I really need to get this down some more as today is my last day of working for someone else :j
    I will now be running my own business (cake making and decorating) , so we wont have the income we are used to .
    The vegan thing is going well for me but I still have to stop myself buying "red label" bargains. Hopefully working from home will help to stop that , as I wont be going past mr w on my way home each day , as I live 7 miles from the town :D

    Guys. Just decluttered the jar cupboard.

    Anyone got any ideas about what to do with an unopened jar of pickled quails eggs with a BB of 2009? (Other than just bin them :rotfl:) I've no idea what they even taste like as they were a gift from MIL.

    toddles, did you say you could freeze milk? That would be excellent for me as whenever we run out of milk and I pop over to the little shop, I end up buying something extra. OH is worse - send him over for milk and he returns with a bag of sweets!
