frogletina what did you see at the cinema?
I went to see 'We need to talk about Kevin'
This was a film of one of the books that we read at the book club that I belong to and it was a good adaptation of it.Not Rachmaninov
But Nyman

Morning!
I've managed to spend only £9.26 so far which was yesterday - got a x3 kids dvd's out of the library at £3.50 for my two daughters (most of them only £1 for a week which is very good value).
Also, popped to Waitrose (most of which out of my food budget for the week), but I had my 3 year old with me, and needless to say, a few 'extras' ended up in my basket that weren't on my list ie. father xmas chocolate lolly, strawberries etc so I've counted those out of my weekly spend budget.
Am hoping for a NSD day today as far as this challenge goes apart from ordering a couple of xmas pressies, but that's out of my xmas budget.AFD 0/310 -
Happy Wednesday all
Spends so far:
Monday:
£3.68 - Frying Steak
£1.43 - Bananas
£1.29 - Noodles
£1.50 - Peppers
Tuesday:
£3.00 - Take away rice & naan to go with my homemade curry
Total. £10.90/£42.00
I'm hoping my £42 limit to do me untill the end of Sunday though, weekends are always my most expensive. Hopefully a NSD today though, fingers crossed I need it!

My friend at work just came over and gave me £3 i'd lent her a few weeks ago which I completely forgot about, so i've actually made some money!
So new total!

Am determined to have an NSD today ~ feel as though I've been way too spendy lately and my signature will thank me
Now I've written it down it will be soooo embarrasing if I have to come back on here later and declare otherwise

Change of plan to my earlier post! Not a NSD day as I had hoped. Ended up getting a couple of bits from Tesco Express as OH decided he wanted a curry tonight instead of meal plan so an extra £5.86 spend for me today :cool:AFD 0/310
