How Much Have/Will You Spend Today Tuesday 23rd January

Hi there. Hope I haven't duplicated!

For me, nothing! Got a day off today for doctors appointment this morning (home already :D) and this afternoon I am waiting for British Gas to come out and service the boiler. (Why does that always sound rude? :confused:)

So a NSD for me today which is much needed seems I have blown the budget for this week already :eek:.


Hope everyone can keep it a low one today.

    Hello I spent £12.78 at Asda last night
    Today I will spend £3 on travel into work. I will have to get a bottle of wine as I'm going to my friends' for dinner.

    Yikes. I'm getting dangerously close the the limit. This is much harder than I thought! It just goes to show how much more than £40 I would usually spend......... :(

    Good morning LA,

    Well I have brought my lunch with me today so hopefully no spend there. I have a bit left on a boots gift card and a couple of money off vouchers to use up so I am going to get some shampoo and mouthwash (exciting stuff!).

    I also have £50 of shrapnel to pay into the bank, it's funny how I don't see it as real money until it is in my savings account! I will be glad to get rid of it as it weighs a ton (any mugger would have had a shock if they tried to get my bag off me this morning!)

    Been re-jigging my spreadsheet and I am well on target for April 25th DFD, bring it on!

    Have a good day all!
    Saving for an early retirement!

    Have spent £14.57 on a new switch for my shower, and will be spending £1.70 on my DSs footie magazine later.
  • Hopefully a NSD but i have to "spend" in boots, but i have enough points and free coupons to tide me over.

    May just treat myself to a mealdeal while im there.

    Having a really sh*tty day so need something to perk me up.. hopefully boots freebies will!!!
