    ooopsie.... i had to spend £27.99 on a wireless pcmcia card for my lap top.. which was given to me on "long term loan" from me dad, so the laptop was free so in the grand scheme of things, 27.99 aint bad.

    The girl in the newsagent was so rude when serving me she mistakenly gave me 12 1st class stamps instead of 6 so i figured i wasnt going to tell her as i deserved them for her poor customer service.

    mwahahaha

    I think this counts as a no spender;

    £2.65 on Swimming which is budgeted for each week (but taken out of spare change pot).
    £20 on a second-hand Kelly's kettle for me to use at a festival and then to give to Mum for her birthday in September (Well it's already been used :o), from my Birthday's fund money.
    £14.00 for a dress on e-bay, on behalf of my housemate who will pay me back.

    So no actual spends from my Incidental money. :T
