Afternoon all,

Thought I would pop in as I am pleased with myself .

I have not borrowed any money from the parents in ages :T and I have been living comfortably within by budgets :T . This is a huge achievement for me .

Today I have been grocery shopping and grabbed a few bargains . Tin Christmas sweets for £4 let's just hope I don't eat them all before the festive season . Also got a huge pack of ariel wash powder 80 washes reduced to half price so paid a £10 :T

Also paid for Moos bike £300 :eek: why so expensive but it's the only thing she has asked for so far !
I am a bit concerned as I have been saving all year for Xmas for Moo and after paying for the bike there is not much left in the budget and I don't want her to be disappointed . She still believes in Santa and would feel so guilty if she wakes up on Xmas morning and is disappointed that there is not much to look at . When they still believe I think it's more quantity rather than quality .

I am probably worrying for no reason and I know that moo will be
grateful for whatever she gets .it's just that Christmas panic setting in .

Apart from that everything is good
Have a lovely afternoon all
