    Another No Spend Day for me, I'm getting good at these now.

    Bought my train ticket for next week this morning but my dearest mummy gave me £10 towards it and the ticket has only cost me £4 so I'm up £6 and on my fourth No Spend Day in a row.

    Hoping for more of the same and getting through tomoro with my £25 in my purse still intact.

    Arrrggghhhhhh! SO VERY NAUGHTY TODAY!

    Ok, here's what happened...
    Had a meeting scheduled with a florist (work appointment), she was 15 minutes late so I was in this lovely shopping mall milling about. Had taken my purse out of my brief case on purpose. While I was milling about waiting for her I spotted this jacket.
    It was Maschino. (need I go on?!)
    It was reduced from £195 to £28 (last season).
    I couldn't help it - the Martin Lewis in my head had gone to sleep!
    So, yes I went to my car and got out my debit card and bought it. And it looks gorgeous.
    Anyway, I kind of half-pitched the woman in the shop (I sell advertising) and gave her my card.
    Got home tonight - pulled tomorrows appointments off the fax machine and lo and behold, she made an appointment for 11 o'clock tomorrow!!!!!!!!!
    The minimum I get for a sale is 130 so all in all I will be £102 up!

    He he he I love it when a plan come together.

    Hubby was naughty today too - he bought a roll from subways!


    NSD on Sunday - promise!

    well so far today has been a nsd but i'm shortly about to go into town and get a new bag for my dinner dance tomo night, although it's not a life or death thing i do really need the bag. i must admit i do have a cheap silver one that could go but it really does look cheap and i'm wearing a stunning silk dress (borrowed) and the bag i have would just spoil it totally.

    anyway i'm tired of justifying it to myself, i'm doing really well on my budget this week and i did allow for it on my budget so i'm buying it! if mozie makes me visit the naughty house so be it!

    Today I spent 50p on my lunch at college.

    I'm really annoyed though because I can see that Barclays have taken a debit out of my account for £11.50 saying "Debit - Commision" and they have also set me up for their bloody Additions account without me saying yes!!!! So I'm going to have to rush to the bank tommorow inbetween college and work GRRR!
