Day 14/19 for me well for lunch anyway. Treated myself to a bacon roll for brekkie since it was Friday :j so spent £1.40 on that. Ham sandwiches and yoghurt for lunch.
Quite happy with my week as I have only spent £6.40 since monday. I just need to keep this up over the weekend
Hope everyone has a lovely weekend. :beer:0 -
