Hello Brizzle,:wave:
I came over here after reading a post on Harri-bear's diary (about telling your husband about the debt). Have I really never posted in your diary before? It would appear not...
I do tell my husband regularly our debt and progress (or sometimes lack of) but I am sure if I asked him what we owe right now he wouldn't have a clue.:rotfl:
Anyway good luck, I have subscribed (at last):D

Hi everyone, and especially the lovely banwa!
Yes it was lovely carrot cake so definitely counted as 1 of my 5 a day!!!;-)
Made Tilly Tidies..and will update sig this Friday.
All good here, another day of living on work expenses but had to buy DD1 a pair of emergency boots as she is off on a trip this weekend...£48! But oh well, will be used for her sister in due course and last pair of walking boots was 2 years ago so she is a cheap shoe girl!
Apart from that no spends, walked in then checked right out of the Deben@ams sale ...need to see about OH though..but nothing to suggest he has not been frugal...
Love to all

I think I have a DD who subscribes to Mara's version of healthy eating.:rotfl: I have come to count ketchup as one of her 5 a day!
Good work on not giving in to sale temptation. The cost of children's shoes is outrageous!!:eek:0 -
Agree BH! And am still checking that they will fit her, they may be too tight across the foot
no time to buy new ones..so pretty stressful!
Have done Tilly Tidies. Need to pay a grocery bill but that's it. OH frantically working but no spends he says. Need to pay a school camp fee..and have just been out for a drink with the girls..much needed...but that's it! Babysitting on Friday so little chance to spend

Achievements:

- groceries bought with c&&p vouchers - only £2.23 to pay - and lots of orange stickered goods which is good as we have a very low stocked fridge
- good day of income forecast on the panels
- clearing out clothes for CS and maybe Fleabay if I CBA
- Tilly Tidy done against last 2 evil cards
But anyway all good..hope everyone is well..must fly!!!!! Will do scores on doors tomorrow

I really prefer the old store, the new one doesn't seem to have very many billy bob bargains.
