    I've spent nothing at all today. I did a public talk to 50 people this morning about the benefits of volunteering and all the drinks were free then I came back home to catch up on my paid work.

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker Xmas Saver!
    I used my bike to go to work today so a real saving there. I missed breakfast and just had free coffee from the machine for my lunch. for dinner I think I'll have a peep in the skips outside the local supermarket. its amazing what they throw away and its hardly past its sell by date. bread can be a bit stale but if you use ot for toasting or in bread and butter or summer puddings its fine. if you use berries picked from the local woods, then a summer pudding is free. A NS for me too.

    seriously???
