  • Well I spent £50 on the deposit for a wedding cake today, but I'm not counting it as it's coming out of the wedding budget.

    Afternoon all

    Well the heavens have opened here, and although i am on 2 weeks leave i am happy enough as the garden was desperate. :D

    Spends wise have managed to spend £11.06 in the last two days on junk although it was expected as we are both on leave and i have a habit of just 'popping' to the shops for 'stuff'.

    Still no real plans for the next couple of days as [STRIKE]we are[/STRIKE] hubby is DIYing. So i am catching up on all the little housework bits i have been putting off for ages such as tidying cupboards, clearing clothes out etc.

    Hope everyone is well.

  • I've spent £18.83 on groceries today, plus another £35 on wedding related stuff.
    Whilst it feels like I've spent a fortune, they've both come out of other budgets so it's a nsd for this budget. Wow!

    Hi all

    More money spent on food today -

    Sun - NSD
    Mon - £9 (lunch with girls)
    Tues £7 (lunch between meetings with colleagues).

    Total = £16/£30

    I was at a conference thing with colleagues and there was no way I was bringing out a packed lunch:p. One of my colleagues had no money so I treated her to lunch.

    Tomorrow should be an NSD but Thurs will be meetings again and I'll bring my lunch but you never know:o. I don't usually eat out but it's just the way this week has fallen.
  • 2 NSD in a row for me its been a long time coming lol x
