  • 1. left work at 5.55 - so 1 hours overtime & shops were shut when I left!
    2. took book into work for lunchtime read & 2 oatibix ( cereal diet) so wasn't tempted to shop ( raining cats & dogs also helped)
    3. dh & I stayed in & shared bottle of wine bought at Tesco when 20% discount was on so cheaper than smoke-filled pub
    4. Tesco clubcard statement arrived so more airmiles towards our next hotel away & money off vouchers in-store

    Hi all,

    New to the site, but been saving, scraping, and doing whatever it take for the last 3 years to get out of the hole we (me and the mrs) have found ourselves...

    Tonight I cooked a meal for 2.50
    Morrisons roasted chicken 1.79, stir fry veg and noodles (5 packs 9p each)
    and we've still got enough for a meal tomorrow.....
    Living with the legacy of bad decisions....but Proud to be dealing with my debts !:j Official DFW Nerd No. 362
