What have / will you spend today? Friday June 1st

Morning everyone

Was intending today to be very much a NSD, but OH has asked me to pick him up a repeat prescription, and handily didn't give me the £6.85... he's lucky I love him. Pfft.

Most of our bills came out today though... bloody Council Tax.

That's it for me. Should be a nice and low weekend as we're going 'home' to our parentals and dog-sitting, lots of calorie burning walks I think!

Have a lovely low day everyone! xx

(PS: I've lost 4.1kg... think that's 9lbs? In 2 weeks. Happy happy!)

    Hi Bobble!
    Thank you!
    I'd love to buy lunch today... have been eyeing up my Boots Advantage points, but I know i should save them. Had better go make salad instead :(

    Hi Bobbadog, Bobble and all,

    £25 (budgeted) on petrol which is going via a cashback card and will be paid off next week :T
    £25 on dinner tonight which I didn't get to pay for on Wednesday night as OH was not very well so we didn't eat.
    £1 on Diet coke and crisps at lunchtime - need to break that habit!
    £20 on Park n Ride tickets for the next three weeks (budgeted and can also go on cashback card! :T)

    C xx

    Congrats on the weight loss bobbadog, that's great going!

    Today I intend on having an NSD, but I suspect I'll have to put some petrol in the car to pick OH up from work, but it's budgeted for so that's not too bad.

    Just paid another £195 off my Grad Loan. That's it until next month's paycheque. Still a bit over from France and Spain trips (£300) so limited my budget for the rest of the month to £70.

    I think that thing I've been meaning to do where I sell all the books and DVDs that I'm finished with on eBay actually needs to happen this weekend...

    Hope she's ok...

    I'm hoping for minimal spends today. If I pay for our meal tonight (with tesco Clubcard deals mwah hahah!) , I'm hoping my boyfriend will pay for the drinks during the England game....
    Overpay!
