    Just sold some railings we had made but never used for £120. Been paid for them, but lady isn't collecting till Saturday so can't count it in this budget just incase she changes her mind or can't transport them due to weight!

    Still a huge help towards my little lady's birthday next month :)

    Oops 32b3 :rotfl:

    Well, I've blown my budget - big oops from me :o

    Monday -£6
    Tuesday - NSD
    Wednesday - £45.93 .......let me explain.....
    Working away this week so killing time after work in the shops. Got a pair of shoes in TK whatsit for £34.99 and a lovely bag £15. Then went to M & S outlet and shoes were all really reduced - you know what's coming next. I got 3 pairs of shoes for £30.48. Before my MSE days I would've kept the lot but I took the first pair back. Trying to convince myself I actually saved £4.51

    £51.93/£35 *hangs head in shame*
