good morning darling dfw's! pretty miserable day up here but since I'm working in an hour I really couldn't care! though I'd much rather not be working after being in a pub for ten hours yesterday after my exam:eek:

well today I plan on making up for yesterday by only doing my food shopping. Will make a list while at work, weekends are usually quietish.

have a good day all and I'll pop back this evening ot check up on you all xxx

    morning lyns,

    Hope the exam went well.

    Today I'll be paying the depsoit on DS birthday party (£20), looking round town for some bathroom shelves, and then taking kids and dog to the park, which shouldn't cost much. I might have to go to Tesco later, and get some washing done though.xx

    Just food shopping for me today too, if I can get off the sofa as I had a similar amount of time in the pub last night! :o Going to try to only spend about a fiver as I only need bread, cheese, some fruit & veg, and anything I can find v cheap meat/ fish-wise.

    ps.. PAP... just noticed your signature - 40p! Now that is impressive!!

    thanks redsquirrel80, i am on a strict diet so all the money i used to spend things on i dont anymore. That 40p was my weekly treat, it can be really had sometimes though and i just want to splash out, but i know if i do that then i will not hit my targets ontime... its worth being frugal :rotfl:

    Spent £1.95 on 'breakfast' at Tesco - otherwise just normal shop (budgeted). Shouldn't spend any more today.

    PS - Any update on Moozie? :confused:
