Sent DH to town for a few things from Mr S and urgently needed prescriptions. He came back with a load of crap we dont need and no prescriptions, having spent £60.0

Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!0 -

Whoops - it is sometimes easily done though x - hope he went back for the prescriptions ?
Today i have just started logging my spending down on my diary - exciting reading i know :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: - its because i spent more than i realised in town :wall: in the end only £8.55 over i think though and i actually went through the supermarket receipt - all of that was essential spending - it was the other shops i'd nipped into where the odd item is cheaper than the supermarket and got lured in by the 'it's only so much...'
I may keep this thrilling exercise up for a few weeks - a spending diary is a good way to refocus for me i think and food shopping is definitely an area i need to cut back on
