    £1.15 for the bus (I walked home) but I got a free lunch and an invite to be a bridesmaid!

    Spent a christmas voucher in boots (shampoo, shower stuff) and got a £3 voucher for haircare and £5 for makeup free - so tonight I am havign a free manicure, pedicure, facepack and intensive conditioning treatment in front of the telly for a grand total of NO PENCE! I'm going to feel like a princess - I'm worried this DFWness is invading my mind.

    I spent:

    65p on amazon postage.
    £15.50 at the dentist on a check up.
    Used a £5 La Senza voucher (I got when it when I took back some pants my mum bought me which were the wrong size) to buy a pair of summer pj's for £5 so no spend there (and retail therapy).
    £1.85 on a lush bubble bath bar (and got a piece of soap worth £2.70 free) - no excuse just love them :o

    OH paid for parking (1.40) and lunch (about £1.40 for us both) and a couple of things he needed but not too bad.

    So not a nsd for me but not too bad I think. Resisted the temptation to go in any clothes shops (other than la senza).
