    Spending:

    £7.14 Morrisons - various bits and pieces.
    £9 - new shoes (70% off!) for work.
    £9.50 - pizza for dinner :o
    £4 payday crafty bargain.

    So, a little bit splurgy but never mind :)

    More spends coming too - pub tomorrow and Monday, but have pyjamas to return to the shops which should give me £15 cash for tomorrow!

    I agree...thoroughly enjoyed it.

    How many bargains did you hoover up?

    The film was perfectly fine. Nothing taxing and pretty funny in places. It's worth a watch :)

    I didn't manage to hoover up many bargains at all - spent about £30 today (will check receipts and report in the morning) but that includes enough cat litter/dry food for a fortnight, so it's actually better than it sounds.

    Spending yesterday

    £1.87 - digital stamps (half price)
    £7.33 in Asda on fruit, Ryvita and low-fat cheese (rock and roll)
    £24 in Aldi, although over £5 of that was on cat litter!

    I also spent £6.50 (!!) on posting a parcel, but the friend I was sending it to paid for the postage, thank goodness.

    So, the accounts are looking like this:

    Spends/food - £116.52
    Bills - £263.34 as the power bill came out this morning
    Purse - £10.90

    Spending yesterday:

    £2.25 on a cup of tea and a Crunchie.

    Still a MSE victory as the original plan was to meet my friend in the pub where it would have cost a lot more for a beer :)

    I had all my spends receipts for yesterday and then threw them out. Oops. Less than a tenner spent though including two new bras from the clearance rail at M&S :D

    Today I spent 30p on a packet of crisps. I really don't have the discipline for the NSD challenge :D

    I have left:

    Purse - about £13 (It's cold and I'm not moving from beside my heater unless I absolutely HAVE TO)
    Spends/food account - £102.02
    Bills - £225.93

    I get paid on Friday, so that'll make the accounts look even cheerier. I am going to be spending around £35 (!!) on a haircut on Saturday, so I'm trying to keep being frugal with what's in the spend account!
