Morning all, been to Sainsburys already and spent £61 in there :eek: but I am on day three of my diet (yet again :cool: ), and fruit and veg is sooo expensive but at least I didn't need to buy as many snack / junk items as usual.

I also went in to Boots while I was there and now have to rave about their new foundation zappy thing - basically they have spent 3 years developing a camera thing that takes pictures of your skin and tells you the foundation you need - it was amazing, the one I needed was much much darker than any I would normally go for, there was no hard sell whatsoever, in fact there was a queue of people waiting to get done So I now have the right colour foundation for the first time in my life :j Boots have exclusivity over the thing for a year but they said they have been blown away already by the response and it was only released on wednesday. Right, thats my sales pitch over with lol

Mr S is coming round later and ds comes home at 3. Other than that I don't have much planned for today

Spends so far in September = £61 food, £12.50 Boots.

First day back at school today, all went well, ds has his first day back tomorrow.

Spends today = £2.40 on food, yesterday was a nsd

I also ordered ds christmas present today; a tv/dvd combo from M&S which was £79 :money:

I won £10 on a games offer today which I will add to my signature.

It wasn't planned Beanie, saw it on hotdeals uk and it seemed a bargain

Crikey, didn't realise I hadn't been on here for three days again

So, we've made it to the end of the first week back at school, glad its the weekend again Mr S is on nightshifts tonight and tomorrow so wont be seeing him this weekend, but he came over last night and stayed and we went out for dinner the night before too

My plan for this weekend is (a) to chill out quite a lot, (b) to clean the car inside and out because its embarrasing and (c) to get 20 items on ebay.

Mr S has ordered Sky sports and movies for my flat, its being installed next weekend and I'm quite excited. I'd never pay for it myself as I wouldnt get the value from it but he cant live without his footie and thinks its worth the cost, so its his baby

Finally finished a bet I've been working on making £58 profit Good start to the weekend

benbenandme

Spends this week =
£10 on staff subs
£20 on takeaway last night
£1 on biscuits

Morning all, another lovely sunny one here today

Spends so far = £5 on milk, butter and a couple of bits.

I have done quite a lot of housework already this morning and have rearranged the lounge slightly as the guinea pigs are coming home from mums today.

My plan for the rest of the weekend involves;

1. cleaning the car inside and out
2. collecting the guinea pigs
3. ebaying at least 20 items
4. buying nephews birthday present
5. taking rubbish to the tip
6. eyebrows etc
7. ironing
8. making chocolate brownies with ds
9. clean the bathroom and kitchen
10. change the beds
11. spend my £10 O2 voucher
12. try and clear half of the paperwork pile

The car is almost emptied of the junk in it, we've been to the tip and got rid of that stuff too, it just needs cleaning later. We've also been and got nephews birthday present and spent my O2 voucher (spent a fiver on top), and bought the stuff to make the brownies so not a bad start. Now we're going to make the brownies then parcel some up and drop them in to the care home as a surprise for Mr S for his nightshift tonight

Spends = £5 O2 shop, £1.60 car park, £11 sainsburys, £13 nephews present (from present fund rather than septembers budget), £2.75 on ham/cheese baguette for ds and water.
