    Help!!!
    I have had a crap money day. Its one of thosepayout days. Heres the list:
    New car : £2300 (good deal though, ebay price is at least £800 more)
    Car Tax: £175 (For above car)
    Car Insurance : £301 (For above car)
    Council Tax : £238 ( Turns out we weren't paying it for the last six months.)
    Gas and ELectric: about £200 (fortuneately they let me put this on direct debits)
    Shopping at Tesco: £62 (Do I need all this stuff?)
    Will it get better than this? Anyone else forked out similar quantities in a short period of time?

    Well the good news is that most of your spending was for one offs! Was your insurance the best deal, through Quidco etc?

    How long will the food last you for? Make sure you use meal planning and lists for food :)

    It will get easier!

    Thank you moozie, all my family have gone out and I'm having a lovely relaxing evening in by myself... bliss! Been reading on minnie's thread about how she's going to bed and its making me tired though, lol, might have to head there myself before long just to clarify, that's my bed I'll be heading for, not minnie's.... before someone's mind gets to work on that one ;)

    I will be here tomorrow, hoping for a no spend day as not planning on leaving the house! Have some ebay items finishing so hopefully will be a money-making day :D
