Total before multibuys/vouchers: £113.73
Thanks so much Mothership - before Second Purse I wouldn't have used a voucher like that as I wouldn't have had spare money to spend!!0 -
Hello everyone
Asda have 32 Cushelle loo rolls for £10, I'm not sure if that's a bargain? but thought I'd mention it. I'm putting all the money I save from buying in bulk into my sealed pot so I should have a lovely surprise when I open it at Christmas

£17 from Second Purse went on boring basics today but stuff I keep using and keep giving me a profit.
I also owe SP for stuff from Sallys Stores but will wait till the end of the week to settle up.
I noticed some more shelves hidden at the back of the 3rd bedroom the other day - think I need to try and drag them down stairs because Sallys Stores def needs to expand a bit!0 -
Mothership, I'm in Livingstone again next Tuesday/Wednesday. Going to be getting the train up and back again for a 21:30 - 07:00 shift. I can't remember how far away you said you were from there, but I remember you saying I needed to let you know next time I'm coming upDiary: Getting back on track for 2013 and beyondDEBT FREE 13-10-13 :dance::dance::dance::dance::dance:

Morning!
Just balanced the purses and have moved another £34.35 over to the 3rd purse. 2nd purse has the full £50 in it and I'm off to Co$tco tomorrow so will use that money for juice cartons, lucozade and loo roll. I fully expect to use most of the £50, but that's what it's there for right?
Now have £60ish towards my kitchen aid whoop whoop :jCross-stitch WIP: Fiver Friday challenge 2025 founding member 😊 Read 25 books in 2025 11/25 Currently reading The Cliff House by Amanda Jennings0 -

But I STILL dont like spending out of SP :rotfl:
But 3rd Purse I have no trouble spending out of....seen a nice summer dress I quite fancy getting0 -
I've decided to keep my SP at £20, otherwise I will just buy too much stuff, that I just don't have the room for
I did buy three fabric conditioners yesterday, HP at £1.68, buy back at £3.36VSP: #640 -
Just updated my purse. I spent £31.69 this week in my stores, so 2nd purse now back up to £32.69. I will keep purse closed this week and hopefully, the balance should now begin to grow.
I've nearly spent 50% of my grocery budget in my own store this week - it's working Mothership!!:T0
