Afternoon
Popped up to the shops earlier and spent £16.50 on fruit and veg, bread etc and then £4 something on some stamps.
Have paid for my 4 month pre-payment prescription certificate for £36 (just before they scrap the 4 month one and start 3 monthly ones!)
£56.50 for me so far and have no plans to go out and spend out any more money today... but all budgetted for!
:heartpuls CG :heartpulsEver wonder about those people who spend £2 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backward.0 -
Was hoping for nothing but caved in and spent 80p in the snack machine. Since wednesday I have spent £4.13 and £1.66 has been on snack machine any tips since I cant seem to stay away from it, and yes I have just worked out it is £120 a year!0

OH is paying for this evening's entertainment. Hurrah!

A big fat zero!! Hurray! And I'm really proud of that! Don't ask me why, but today I felt like the money in my purse was burning a hole in it and therefore I must spend it! However, I resisted the temptation of magazines and other totally unnecessary items and I only window shopped!

Nothing out of 'extras' budget... £25 on food in Waitrose but £10 of that was gift voucher so still within my £10-15 a week budget.. although the idea was to use the voucher instead rather than as well as my usual spend... got a bit carried away though
On the positive side I have enough olive oil and pasta to keep me going for weeks, and I got a few spices etc to add a bit of interest to the cheap meals which were starting to bore me!! Debt@16.12.09 £10,362.38, now debt free as of 29.02.2012."I cannot make my days longer so I strive to make them better."0 -

Spent nothing at all today....woooo!
And I made a fab pasta/bolognaise tea that cost next to nothing and tasted amazing - what a great DFW day

Well after having a pretty good week I let myself down today by buying junk food at Mcdonalds on the way home. I also brought Coffee and a peice of Carrot cake ealier on at Starbucks. Total spend today £8.08 :eek:
This means that I broke my budget for the week(£10) as in total all week I have spent £12.39 in total.
On a better note I should be able to claim back some Coffee sessions on my expenses upo to about £10 for the week although of course that could have gone off something else. :rolleyes:Official DFW Nerd Club - Member no. 297 - Proud To Be Dealing With My Debts

Today, I spent too much.
£4.90 on Chip shop takeaway
£0.45p Diet Coke.
£0.40p Mars Bar
Had a bit of an issue with the cars. Basically the bodyshop came to take the people carrier away, and replaced a 7 seater with a teeny weeny cr*p Volkswagen Fox. It has 4 seats! Anyway, went to Nans in said hire car, left little 2 there while collected middle one and a big one from school (other big one gets bus). Fine AOK until we were all at Nans and I realised that we cannot get home - not enough space in the car.
Spent the takeaway money on tea until OH finished work and could take some kids home!0
