Comments

Feeling quite virtuous about my cleaning weekend... I do however need a rest now and with MrMRN home tomorrow, the house could quickly return to the state it was in on Friday!!! Why do I bother?!MFW: Nov 2008 £156k, Jun 2015 £129k, Jun 2017 £114k.0

It's a case of battening down the hatches for the next few days (well until Friday really).
As suspected, my grocery spends really crept up and that's what happens when I take my eye of the ball:o
I still have quite a few Christmas presents to buy - I reckon approximately £100 (no more though!!) which is better than previous years.....
Also, I have been shopping at Ms weekly as this will give me a £30 voucher just before Christmas day. I will use this for Christmas Eve/Day/Boxing food/nibbles etc. (or more than like will put towards)
Fortunately I have approximately £75 or so expenses to be submitted, however may need to keep back as my January 'buffer'
:eek::eek::eek::eek: just realised the time - best get moving for work.
Have a lovely MOP/MSE day XFebruary13 - £74990 (or thereabouts)

I know what you mean with grocery spends, Im embarrassed that we spend £500 a month (and thats only if im really good) but cant seem to reduce any further, definitely work in progress for me. 2 adults, 3 kids, 3 cats and all those pack ups... no still could do better.

Yikes indeed - all those airy 'I'll have it done by Xmas' work promises are suddenly a bit scary :snow_laug.HelenDaveKids wrote: »
