Posts: 4,633 Forumite
Sorry sorry sorry if there is already a daily spend thread for today but I couldn't see it...
So I thought I would start one now.
I have spent £42.03 on the weekly shop and that's it.
An old mate took me out for lunch as well and insisted on paying...what luck!
Anyway I am a bit gutted as I missed the weekly budget I set by £8. And I am annoyed with myself because that £8 was what I spent on secret Santa present which I FORGOT TO BUDGET FOR!!! :mad: :mad:
So I failed. :sad:

I spent £1.69 on a sandwich and a packet of crisps
so I'm quite pleased with that total. I've been travelling most of the day though, so I haven't really had the chance to spend or be tempted by anything!! :T Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

For lunch in town today whilst Christmas shopping I fancied a cheese sandwich.
Rather than pay £2-3 for a baguette or prepared sandwich, I went to Sainsbury's and bought 6 freshly baked granary rolls (39p) and a 6 pack of Diarylea minatures (50p).
Net result; 6 "cheese" rolls for 79p
