    Again get well wishes for all in need of them!

    Also, LIH I noticed the chocolate needing/eating is spreading - this could be the solution to our problems! :money:

    Took advantage of the Orange Wednesday and went to the cinema this evening. Total spent: £13.20 so that's £15.49 so far this week :D

    Have a good night's rest everyone xx

    Moozie....if you read this can you PM me or post on my ramblings thread cos I need your advice and might not read this thread again tomorrow (off to bed in a second).

    I sold something on EBAY tonight for £30. I was hoping to get this much because I desperately needed to buy something for that amount of money - which I did do tonight. So in effect the sale & purchase cancel each other out. My purchase was dependent on the EBAY sale totally.

    Do I include it in the weekly budget do you think?

    I wouldn't have bought the items if I hadn't of made the sale - but I did make the sale so the purchase was allowed.

    I am thinking "no" to putting it on the budget because it's separate money if that makes sense.

    Let me know your thoughts! Cheers. LA x

    Hey LA, hope you are well!

    I will post in the ramblings (which I turned into my ramblings the other day, sorry!:o ) and PM you too but in case someone else is wondering, my thoughts on this are not to include it in the weekly challenge. It's a different pot - that's how I deal with it.

    Off to repeat myself elsewhere :rotfl:

    - 50p - 2 bananas at work (I'd run out at home)

    I wish I could buy bananas at work - it'd do me much more good than biscuits all the time. Unless of course you happen to work in a green grocers, in which case I suppose its a perk of the job!

    hi moozie & all, hope everyone is well. Today I spent £6 on a book about allotment gardening. It wasn't budgeted for and I shouldn't really have done it but I need to get stuck in to the allotment come February and it will come in mighty useful. I figure if it helps me to grow some extra veg this year or in subsequent years then it will pay for itself. I've wanted it for ages too and the price was cheap. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!!

    I think the real question is did you buy any chocolate? :think:
