i did it looking ahead... i brought some shoes :T and technically i didnt pay for them as mum gave me some of some money that she owes me back... i had to pop to the bank anyway and the shoe shop next door (shoefarye) we dont ever go in but i thought i would have a looksie and we found a pair exactly the same as in the other shop for £10 (the same price) but then i looked around a bit more and found a pair more suited for work ie thicker soles... thicker leather... and much more sturdier... they were £15 but... i did a but of a naughty and got both because i cant drive with thick soles (was using my broken shoes for this too)... i have tryed with my trainers (skater trainers) and i cant do it so... i got the £10 ones for driving and the £15 ones for work but if i break any of the pairs i have a back up :T so a bit of a naughty but some people will spent £50 on a new pair :eek: so i did quite good... did regret it a but though but needs must... i am not counted that as my spend budget though as i brought them from money i didnt think i would have....

but i am not happy :mad: the bus company has increased my bus ticket by £4 i knew they were going to do it but that now works out £2.40 per jounery... not much of a saving now this spend was budgeted £40 but i needed two tickets so i was short to get two so i only got one but hopefully mum will be able to give me some more of the money she owes me to buy one near the middle of next month :rolleyes:

so now we get there :rotfl: why are my posts getting longer and longer :rolleyes: out of my budgeted weekly spends i spent £1.39 ~ £1 on a key chain hook thing... so i can wear my new trousers to work (has no pockets) and hook my keys on the belt holder and then 39p on fresh apple juice... mmmm not bad £1.39 :T mum payed for my soup stuff... and that was only 89p as we had most of the stuff in the cupboards

have a good day all

LOL!!!!! Your post reminded me of me! Trying to justify why you need 2 pairs of shoes... if you need them then you need them and if you don't then you don't! Stop trying to convince us and be happy with your decision

Me - I've spent £3.99 on getting a key cut... so blinking expensive! And I will need to go back and get 3 more cut 2moro cos they guy in there said that he couldn't do it - all very strange indeed! Surely if you can cut 1 ket then you can cut 3 more... or maybe there is some key cutters law about the amount you can do it one day or something. Am sure someone will pop along and tell me why...

Maybe he didn't have any more blanks.

Anyhoo, so far today, I've spent £1 on some carrots and a turnip. OH was getting a bit fed up of just sprouts, cabbage and broccoli with every meal.
Although my experimental home wind farm was producing some promising results. :rotfl:
I might put some more petrol in the car later, so will post again if I do.

Planning a non spender - colleague is taking me out to lunch, I hope :rolleyes: She seems to have forgotten.

Have a good day all xx

It seems today is hard luck day Colleague sent apologies in the end, sandwich man was on day off at work and it has been too cold to venture out. Starving now but at least I've had a non spender

i know i know but the way i think of it is at least £10 could have one into savings i always justify my spends in my head now so it automatically gets posted here :rotfl: also i feel i need to justify them as thats a huge amount just on shoes...
