    I decided to go food shopping today as we are running low and didn't want to start wasting money down the local shop as its far more expensive.

    I overspent on my £50 a week budget though :( I spent £46.08 in tesco and £6 in the pound shop (so not to much over!)

    Ds1 has swimming this evening so it will be a quick meal after school, I've got some chicken out the freezer to defrost so will probably do chicken and mayo jacket spud with salad. I have 3 hair appointments tomorrow but will wait until Friday to pay the cheques in the bank as I will have to do a few trips otherwise.

    Day off today so I'm baking some muffins and cupcakes :D
    I have a parcel that should be delivered today so I need to wait in for that as its new hairdressing scissors. Paid the council tax yesterday, It was a couple of days late as some cheques didn't clear in time but at least it's paid now!

    I need to sit down and sort out my car insurance today as it ends on the 16th June and I can get it cheaper else where. Should be a nice quiet day in today, I don't need anything from the shops so I'm staying well clear and hoping for a NSD. :)

    Had a busy weekend as family decided to visit which was nice :D

    I paid the next 2 weeks rent yesterday so that is now paid up till next payday. Cancelled my car insurance as its due for renewal on the 19th and I can get it cheaper elsewhere. I need to check my bank and hopefully I can pay a bit to the debt, probably only be around £10 but I will be £10 close to becoming debt free :) I need to post my dads Father's Day card this week so might do that tomorrow as I have a tendency to forget!

    Right off to check my bank......

    Paid £12 to the debt.

    I need to be careful with money until payday and I still need to do some food shopping for next week. May have to go into my overdraft. :(
