    Morning all

    It's the weekend again and i've been paid:j

    Sunday - £1.50 paper
    Mon - NSD
    Tues - NSD
    Wed - NSD
    Thurs - 55p paper + £17 swimming
    Fri - Chinese £5.80 + £5.49 wine

    Total - £30.34/£40

    I also spent £104 on 2 new tyres and wheel alignment for my car but that is out of another budget. I could save so much if I lived near work.

    Swimming was so expensive as niece & nephews were a nightmare. Niece said she had money for goggles (she lost the pair I bought) she had 50p!!!!!! so I forked out £3. I usually buy them a treat after and it's usally 50p not this week:mad:. Thankfully it's not normally so bad. ok rant over. I just have to set the boundaries from now on.

    Please put me down for £40 next week.:)
