I like the idea....
I seem to have always worked in teams that riffle through my drawers for food :rolleyes: .. I think it's because everyone's sooooo health concious in the city that they don't want to have their own, but nabbing someone else's isn't seen as so bad :rolleyes: . Like the whole idea that eating chips off someone else's plate doesn't count as calories (I'm sooooooo gald that's true you know)
I've managed to nab a few mins to myself while the new guy is at lunch and I've actually managed to stay away from the canteen
NSD so far for me. Not that I'll get much for my 10p :rotfl:April 2021 Grocery Challenge 34.29 / 2500 -

Welcome dezzi and to our other newbies from a semi regular oldie :rotfl:
WooHoo Peach 2nd date :j Forget us have some fun
No spend so far this week but am going out for dinner and drinks tomorrow night with my mates which will be more than £10 and I haven't got a spending budget yet, that will have to wait until I get a permanent job, sooo I think I'm going to "borrow" from next 2 weeks budget if that's ok

Nothing for me yet, maybe some euros when I go to work tonight (rates aren't too bad). But that's planned (since I'm now officially going on my year out, yippee) and the money is saved. Hooray!...I like my coffee black, just like my metal!

Good Morning Everyone,
Just wanted to check on everyone since we seem to have lost some regular faces........... So just to say if anyone's struggling or needs a chat, we're all super friendly here, and can hopefully help, even if its only a shoulder
I hope you are all still managing not to spend too much. I had £50 of no spends saved up so I got myself a new pair of trainers £29.99 in the sale last week and had a £6 lunch for two, the same day. This week I spent all of my £10 on lunch out for two and then tea and scones another day. I just had to get out of the house, but then it incurrs spending when weather is this bad. Keep up the NSDs!business mortgage £0))''(+ Barclay's business kitchen loan £0=Total paid off was £96105 PPI claimed and received £13527
