Hi Moozie & all,:hello:
Things are looking up!:D - we have electricity this morning!:T :T :T
We've had no power since Wednesday lunchtime due to the wind so its been rather cold and dark here. I didnt miss washing, ironing, vacuuming;) or even the tv but i did miss light whilst trying to cook dinner (by gas), but most of all the internet! I honestly hadnt realised how much i use it! If i ever have to choose between tv and internet, internet would win everytime!
Anyway, back to business! Because i spent most of my budget for the week on Monday I have had to be so good since! Today i spent £1.10 on some eggs for some baking i intend to do this weekend, and have updated my signature - I forgot on Monday!:rolleyes:
Have a great weekend everybody and hope you feel better soon livinginhope:grouphug:
Snaggles, your condition comes under the 'self-inflicted' category so no sympathy deserved according to my DH,;) (he has a strange sense of humour) but i can remember what its like, so :grouphug: WHAT DO MEN KNOW ANYWAY!:rotfl:Experience is the toughest teacher because she gives the test first then the lesson

I spent my last £4.08 on petrol last night, now our budget is nil until Monday morning when another £85 kicks in!! I had to pay at "Pay at pump" last night as I needed to spend so little and was embarassed to pay such puny money!0 -

D'oh, had to buy some milk, so 72p spent now. At least I didn't go to the supermarket - I might have spent a few pence extra at the shop down the road (I think it's 64p in Asda), but I also didn't come home with £30-worth of stuff I didn't really need, which is what I usually do when I go supermarket shopping!"I wasn't wrong, I just wasn't right enough.":smileyhea97800072589250

£1.50 on bus fare.
£0.24 (I think it is?) on a second class stamp.
Resisted invite to go to pub too :A
That should be it for today as not going out tonight.
Hope everyone enjoys their Friday.Bank Balance: In the black for the moment.

Spend £1 on a magazine trial but get £7 back from Quidco, working from home so should be a NSD otherwise.
Yesterday was bad, had to kill 3 hours between appointments and the best place was in a shopping centre as it rained but I resisted most of it and only spend £15 on some craft things I really wanted/needed.Save £12k in 25 No 49
