    Hi moozie
    Sounds like you had a good day out ;) glad you enjoyed yourself :j

    Forgive me moozie for I have sinned :o when I went food shopping in Asda,I bought some new underwear,all in the sale though,DH complained that my knickers were getting very baggy :eek: as I have lost a lot of weight,he said I needed some new ones,so I got 2 bras and matching knickers £12 for all,very nice,but you know what men are like :rolleyes: not what I would call 'everyday wear' ;) but that is what it will have to be :D

    LIH

    LIH now I know you deserve new underwear and much more! Hope you tried them on tonight and you're having an early one ;)

    not spent anything in hard cash but does credit on your mobile count? - my 2 boys left last night on a skiing trip with school (just don't ask how much that cost me last year!!) & its my babys 1st time away from home ( just turned 13, 5'9 size 10 feet) but he's texting me as feeling a bit homesick - then text big brother (age 16, 6'3 size 11 feet 'Mum, have you packed my razor?) to keep an eye on him - its gonna be a long week & I'm a cool, unclingy mum - or so I thought

    Hang in there v_m, the weekend will fly by and your baby will be back to you - hope safe and sound!

    Nothing un-cool about a mom worrying for her son's first trip away, in my book ;)

    No spend day today! Had to do a 100 mile round trip for a meeting, which was less time than travelling! Had to fill up the hire car with petrol but my colleague paid and she also treated me to McD's for lunch - what a treat!

    Hello Everybody :wave:

    I didn't make it but only just and only because I got some work in and ended up having to pay parking........

    Today I spent £4.30 on parking and £5 on dinner, bringing my grand total this week to £44.60, so I'm £4.60 over budget.

    I've been thinking I might not include my parking in my budget, as my job relies on me driving to places and parking in them and this week alone I've spent £14.80 of my £40 budget on parking!!!! YIKES :shocked:

    Have a good weekend everyone

  • Hi Mooozie & All,

    I spent £2.85 today on bananas, a cauliflower and some cooking apples. Very pleased with my low spend again this week:A

    Glad you enjoyed your shopping trip moozie - a little retail therapy is good for you. And LIH, well done on your weight loss, you deserve the new undies in that case!:T

    Have a good weekend everybody.

    hi moozie, bad news for ya, I didn't spend any money tonight...not a bean so your watching jack on your own on sunday, damn, where am I gonna watch it? there was no bar, but free wine on the table and due to my not normally drinking wine I took four bottles of breezer...but I drank a bottle of white on top of that! Was a really good night, got a couple of good photos that I might show off when I get home, caught up with my cousins and got the number of the one in Aberdeen so we can meet up (not seen each other in x amount of years even tho we live in the same place!)...I even got a few dances in and I'm talking proper scottish country dancing! The guys that were there even wrote a song and invented a dance specially for my granda, I was so proud!

    Right I'm off to get a cuppa now and get sorted for bed, I nearly decided to go to glasgow tomo to meet a certain dfw'r but it's too much money :( so I'm spending the day with the old man...

    Hope your all having a fab weekend and I'll catch up with you at a decent hour today or tomorrow xxx

    I spent 68p, I needed to send my iPod away for repair and the warrenty covered the price of 1st class postage, but I was too scared of it going missing - so I thought it was best to pay for Recorded Delivery!

    Didn't get my £30 from college this week because I was off last week for half term, good job I only got paid yesterday!

    Rang Barclaycard and found out I'm 37p in credit! So I'm going to ring them tommorow and cancel the card (I cut it up last month, but its still best to cancel it!)

    Hope everyone had a good day!
