Evening all
I could not see this thread anywhere (seems very strange) so thought I would do it, even though it is late!
Today I have spent £1.50 at work on lunch and then £7.95 tonight at Mac Donald's!!!!:eek: so already a total of £9.45 out of a budget of £10:eek:
Don't think I will do it this week :o

    Was starting to have withdrawal symptoms....! :o
    Spend today £1.50 on bus fare and 80p on a pasty as I was late home for lunch and very hungry! :rolleyes:

    But I made £25 on my dog training today - which means we don't need to go to the cashpoint before Christmas. :j
  • Thanks for starting the thread - it's amazing how quickly I misbehave without it!! I've spent .99 on some pate for my dinner. Not too bad considering Christmas is approaching! Good luck everyone!
    Overpay!
  • Evening everyone, today I spent £6.75, on a present for my nephew. It was a BOGOF offer so he's getting double the presents, so he'll be happy.
    I didnt need to buy anything else as I took my lunch into work and there were loads of nice things going around work, just right if you've got a sweet tooth like me. x
  • I spent 1.70 on a sandwich for lunch......hang head in shame:o
