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.Fiona xx

Got organised, got a joint account, stopped overspending.

Oh, SC, what i'd do for some crisps!!! Am on week 3 of the 'diet'. Have lost 3.5kg, but am getting cravings!!!

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!
