I always type on here from my tablet and it is a faff to change text colour, you've got to highlight then really quickly click on the little arrow next to the A and hope it lets you select the colour you want whilst the text is still highlighted.
Today I spent £14.80 at the zoo, including my entry and a chomp bar! Hehe.
£14.80/£75.000 -
Morning, well last week was green for me! Spent £8.20 all in so i put the remaining £1.80 in my sealed pot.

Pub quiz on Thursday but we won last week so we've got £30 to buy the first round!

Oh dear... Between yesterday and today I have spent £34.62. :mad: not good. Haven't really got anything to show for it either. So £15 for the rest of the week. And out for lunch tomorrow.
Not looking good for a green week especially as we have planned a day out on weds too. And as hubby paid for our impromptu lunch today I'll be paying for weds. :eek:
ETA - it's def worse having hubby around as I def have more impromptu spends when he's here, that said he's back at work in two weeks after having 8 weeks off and I'm dreading it.

Evening all
Well another £8.98 spent today but was planned. And actually I thought I would spend more than that. I had the set lunch meal, £5.99 for main, dessert and drink. Although the menu said it was proportioned for lunch. What I didn't expect was only 4 pieces of scampi. :mad: so I was thankful I'd ordered a starter too.
So total of £43.60 / £50 so far.SPC 18 Target £200 /0 -
