What have / will you spend today Tues May 29th?

Morning DFW's! Hope you're all smiling and that it's a nice sunny day where you are. I've got a million things to do today at work and home, so am having a quick cuppa before I start. Will pop in here randomly throughout the day for my sanity.

Today:
£10 ish in Superdrug - deoderant, toothpaste, hair dye
£3 ish in Somerfield - lettuce and OH's sandwhich fillings & rolls

OH just borrowed £20 for his Oystercard as he hasn't been paid yet.

Am swopping some Primark shorts, and will ignore buying anything else. Probably. Am going away next w/e with work so do need a few new bits... Mmm...

On plus side, have met my self-imposed AQA target to half clear OH's credit card this month. Debt is going down quite a bit!

    Morning!

    Hoping for a very low spend day today - just eaten a substantial breakfast so shouldn't need to buy snacks! and am taking left-over tuna pasta bake from last night for my lunch so hoping to spend £0 on food!

    Nothing else I need to buy - hoping to start this week off on a good foot spending-wise.

    Well done on your weight loss! I should be cutting down too, but I'm doing Paul McKennas weight loss programme so I can eat what I want as long as I enjoy every mouthful and stop when I'm full! That I CAN do! :grin:
