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

hbl_2

£3.30 on lunch. I'm going to try and not spend on lunch for the rest of the week, but today is kind of a treat because I seem to be doing quite well generally on the whole debt repayment thing. I also noticed that I'd budgeted another £80 or so repayment from my next paycheck, which I don't remember doing! Money tends to crop out throughout the month, if I sell stuff on ebay for instance, so if I can take my paycheck and then scatter it to the four corners, leaving just a dribble of spending money remaining, it makes me re-evaluate my circumstances part way through the month, which can be no bad thing.

Looking forward to being paid tomorrow though - I get to do all my geek debt stuff in one go.

Also have some other stuff to look forward to - my mum's 50th this weekend, seeing Evil 9 friday night (already paid for), and the new Shins album coming out next monday...

Glad you got the shoes PAP. Come on don't give yourself a hard time you have two pairs of shoes at a bargain price really and we all *need* footwear. Your others were literally falling to bit, you must not give yourself any grief over this. Good idea to keep the old broken ones for driving though as it will cut back on scuffs on /reheeling of the new ones.

Bummer re: the bus fare increase
I can relate to that as I use the bus every day (mostly). I guess we'll be due a rise at some point too. :rolleyes:

40p on a paper and £10 on petrol. Have been driving on the light for about 5 days so really time to put some gas in. Really begrudge doing it as all i have spent so far this week is 80p (2 x papers). Oh well.

Ive had a bad day really, a £120 cheque to my dad went out today earlier than it should of so I went £97 over my overdraft, so had to raise it by £200 so I dont go over it again before I get paid. Also have had to pay an outstanding balance of £103.36 to T-Mobile, I used my Credit Card for this though. Also £5 credit on my mobile (Now on pay as you go)

But im going to start fresg from tommorow as I have fell off the wagon over the last week or so.

Expect to see alot of NSD from me now :j

thanks la... now thinking about it i think they were fab buys and i am going to be much more comfy in work i wont need them reheeling (thank my dna for that) this was part of the problem... i have very wide feet so i buy mens shoes but not many are avalible in size 6... so no reheeling here ever *offically never owned a pair of lady shoes*

yeah it is but last year they went up 4 times :eek: when i was at college i used to buy the same ticket (10 journey) for £12... working out £1.20 per journey (on the bus it was nearly £2 a journey) now though i pay £24 and they work out at £2.40 per journey... i go 10 stops never mind hey... all the money i am saving and spending on driving lessons should change this spend to insurance/tax/repairs/petrol etc etc i know it will cost more but it saves going to work an hour and a half before i need to be there :rotfl:
