  • Afternoon everyone.

    Well back from the cinema and the film was hilarious. It was 'I give it a year'. I would definitely recommend it but be ready for swearing and innuendo, but all done in a very comical way.

    Sunday - petrol £20, groceries £27.39. Ooops.
    Monday - NSD
    Tuesday - £6.02 cinema and snacks. (£5.10 for cinema, 92p for snacks.)

    Bit of a bonus this afternoon, went to buy my snacks before the cinema, got charged the 89p for popcorn, but I only got charged 3p for the can of tango. :j checked the fridge on way out and it said something about out of date, but checked the can and it was dated dec 13. Not going to argue with that.

    So that's £6.59 left for the week. :D

    Evening

    I am still in budget :D This is almost unheard of for me!

    Today I spent £5.30 on lunch and £12.30 in Nandos. My friend refused to let me pay for her.

    Total for week is £31.60/£65

    I have no plans to spend now until Saturday although I budgeted £5 each for the next 3 days just incase.

    I think I can do this :D
