    Evening all.

    Jonesy - hope you had a lovely time in Paris, well done on the purple week so far.

    Flyinggiraffe - sorry to hear about your toothache and dentistry costs. Hope you feel better soon. Toothache's awful. Are you sure about the drinking and antibiotics, there's only one particular antibiotic you can't drink on, it's a common misconception. Not that I'm encouraging you to drink. :D

    Well done on the NSD's debtfreeby30 and bt1, I'm joining you in that club today.

    NSD for me despite being paid a day early.

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

    Keep going everyone.

    Evening

    I wasn't going to spend anything today, but a bag of salty and sweet popcorn from boots called me so I bought that and 2 bottles of diet coke for a total of £2.30.

    Total for week now £33.90/£65.00 so not at all bad :D

    I still have one of the bottles of coke left on my desk, and i will take my lunch to work tomorrow, so tomorrow should be a low/no spend day too.

    I am actially enjoying this, I have never taken much notice of how the money I spend each day adds up to quite a lot over the course of a week :D

    Thank you all for being an inspiration :A

    Hi all, hope the week is going well so far!

    I have spent:

    Sunday - £3.79 in Tesco (weekly shop!)
    Monday - £2.78 in Tesco again :o
    Tuesday - NSD
    Wednesday - NSD

    Hoping for NSD tomorrow and possibly Friday. Saturday I expect will be a spend day.

    Currently £6.57/£15.00 :cool:

    Wow!! Under £4 for a weekly shop! That's inspirational. Tell us your secrets....

    As for me, I haven't spent anything today which is amazing because I can feel myself really craving to go out and buy something. I have gotten it into my head that I need a watch like yesterday! But have been good, no spending for me today. Don't know how long I can keep it up for though...
    Do other people go crazy and can't stop thinking about things they could buy until they actually make a purchase?
