Packet of crisps

Posts: 550 Forumite
I made my lunch this morning and packed it all up - took it to work with me.
Notice that I've left my packet of crisps at home. Texted my wife, weeping (;) ). She said to buy another.
BUT NO! It is a NO SPEND DAY TODAY! Not even a missing packet of crisps will make me spend money!
Doesn't matter how petty or small the spend is folks, an unplanned spend is a Bad Thing(tm). Those all add up if we let them. So this week, resolve to wipe out the unplanned spends, even if it means making do with a packet of crunchy beef flavoured goodness.
Anyone else being virtuous and not spending in spite of the temptation due to forgetting something today? :A
