    We did our weekly shop today and spent £33.01 (there are 2 of us). I was really pleased with that as it includes some of the pricier items like washing powder, shampoo etc. and we've got some really nice meals lined up for this week as well.
    Egg Loan - £5518.31
    Egg Card - £2908.83
    Barclays Overdraft - £2412.66
    Total Debt = £10,839.80
    Lightbulb moment: 22 December 2006 :eek:

    Proud to be dealing with my debts

    15p today - I NEEDED a choccie bar due to pmt, so splashed out on a freddo. It just goes to show how effective this thread is - it normally would've been a dairy milk, and 'cuase the boys are home it would've had to be the family size one... (with me eating half, lol)
    Erm, at what time does the Monday- friday challenge end? Please say at the end of the working day (say 5pm?) as I reeeeaaaally want to go to Ikea.....

    Someone burst my bubble and I lost the plot so no idea what I spent now... :(I will try to work it out.

    not the best for me today - I wanted to go for a mini spend day, but managed

    2x pairs of socks at 50p per pair ( M&S sale)
    3x Xmas puds in M&S sale 75p each
    pair of smalls in the next sale 2.00 ( for my prize for getting new job)
    5.19 in waitrose on reduced meat, lettuce for tea, and a few other bits that were [STRIKE]needed[/STRIKE] wanted

    I did resist going back to Next clearance though, so Im chuffed with that, although it was a close call!
    :beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
    Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
    This Ive come to know...
    So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:
