Should be a total no spender for me
Doing very well on the Giving Up Money for Lent Challenge. Amazed to see I'm actually within my overdraft for the first time in a long old time!
Got tonsilitis (sp) so will be staying in doors nursing my anti-b's which Im convinced are just a placebo!
Other than that found £20 in one of my handbags yesterday (I like to swap bags around!) so was quite happy with that...
So just some laundry and airing out the flat since its not frightfully cold today, hopefully get rid of some of the germs floating in the air, especially since was lying in bed at 11:30am (I'm ill, its allowed lol) watching how clean is Your House............. ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.Wealth is not measured by currency0 -
Gah! Went to the library to rent a DVD (cheap) and I had £3.30 of outstanding fines from June last year! What a pain...Student Loan Company Ltd: 17,805 (2.8%) Overdraft: 500 (Interest free)
Savings: £5,100 - Target by end of 2008 £5,000+
Net Worth 1/7/06: -£32,698 -- Net Worth 25/8/08: -£13,350.0 -

Grocery challenge: £230 / £230 left0 -
CAFCGil, there are two types of tonsilitis - bacterial and viral. Can't remember which way round but one doesn't respond to anti-b's. The only thing that got rid of mine was Echinacia from the health food shop - often on sale at Holland & Barratt (other leading health food shops are available!)

Today is a no spend day for me, my third this week, feeling very proud of myself (I don't post on here really but read all the time and am a new money-saver - might post a new thread on that later!)
Anyway I have spent £21 today but it was book vouchers left over from Christmas! and guess what I bought with my vouchers..
'not buying it' and 'thrifty ways for modern days' along with a book on re-using and re-cycling.
Looking forward to some enjoyable reading over the weekend!
Today I brought my lunch in from home and have my bus ticket already so don't need to spend anything :-) DH and I will prob spend around £10 on some dinner and maybe a bottle of wine later :-)Fiona xx

£2.70 on lunch for me (couldn't face soup and spent ages in the Orange shop talking to ignorant woman about upgrading). Figure it's ok, as I usually buy a naughty lunch on payday and though payday is next Weds, i'm out doing a talk that day and get lunch thrown in, so win win x 0
