    Hello everyone! Welcome Sharon :)

    Well, went to Tesco but didn't really spend much at all actually :) Bought housewarming presents and a few bits, but I emptied the change out of my piggybank leaving in the 50p, £1 and £2 coins and there was £17 :D:D so I used that. There's still over £150 in big coins left in there, wooohooo

    Also, went round my parents and got my post - had a statement from an old bank account with £45 in it, yeehah. Transferred that bad boy out of there!

    Good thing about working sundays, no lunch break so no need to buy lunch and buy the time I've got out everywhere else has shut too!

    A new day, a brand new Monday and a totally new week...

    After my recent "failings" I'll be sticking to my guns this week,and will seek out as many no spenders as I can manage!

    Tomorrow is my day off and I'll be using the day to try and put together my portfolio to try and sell myself to my company as a freelance photography for their new website! Woohoo! But just got today to get through first...

    Its looking very cloudy and grey over where I am, and no doubt the rain will begin just as I have to walk to work. I'll be taking some cereal in with me today for lunch and hopefully the chocolate cravings will stay at bay!

  • Oops, I've fallen off the wagon quite spectacularly the last couple of weeks. M&S sale plus an extra 20% staff discount = quite a bad m&sgal. Oops!

    Going to be good though this week...NSD today, working extra shifts, all good!

    Good Morning Everyone!

    Its a bright and sunny one here today, but a bit windy.
    Day off for me and really feel like I need it! Have had a bit of a lay in, and today am going to spend the day tidying up the flat.

    Not feeling 100% though as I've got a bit of a lump/bump on the back of my head which is really aching, but it's gone down in size from what it was yesterday!

    I need to get some bread and milk a bit later, but that counts out of my food budget anyway!
    So should hopefully be a total no spender for me today :)

    Hiya
    Been good today just spent 70p on stuff for lunch.
    Had an odd ebay buyer. when he paid for the item he did it within 5 minutes of it ending and then sent a msg to me saying please leave immediate feedback for my very fast payment! and he got the book today so sent me another message saying he wouldnt leave feedback til i left him a great one!
    At least he was nice unlike other eejits i've dealt with

    sorry for the boring post. i dont have anything interesting today (like i ever do lol)
    oh Caf did you get my letter yet?
