Evening all.
Checking in. Walked to work, and had packed lunch as usual (fifth day on the trot of ham and coleslaw sandwiches - I'm so glad it's the weekend). Caught the bus home tonight as I go to an evening class on a Friday night so spent £1.10 on bus fare.
Too tired to even think of alcohol tonight - although some of us at evening class are planning a quick trip over to France on the ferry to stock up on wine so I will be dreaming of rose wine when I go to bed!
Totals are as follows:
Food - £10.75/£100
Petrol - 0/£70
Misc - £6.75/£120
Will check in again tomorrow - after a well deserved lie in.0 -

What a day!!! Proper check in and check up tomorrow but right now I am off to bed!!“Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence.

Good morning! FIL arrived and the first day went rather cheaply, fed us (roast chicken and veg and HM creamy sauce for about £4 all in) from the freezer etc. Hubby just bought some drinks for himself. Tonight feeding the relations might be a different mattet but we'll see. Better dash, DS is screaming is head off downstairs while hubby is sorting breakfeast for a change.DEBT 02/25: total £6100 Debt free date 12/250

Morning all
Checkin in for yesterday-
Had alcoholic last night although I bought. 'Round of drinks' for 2 people for £4! I impressed myself as I swapped my lovely local bar where price would have been £8.00 for my local pub.
Cheap and nice night- no complaints :beer:
Due to small spend did not manage NSD and failed to drag myself outta bed for exercise.
Will update totals this evening.
Have a great money saving day.:)0 -
Morning all.
Quick check in for me this morning as I am off to Bristol for the night. Managed to keep to last weeks Bristol and determined not to spend unnecessarily in Bristol! Keep finding more bits and bobs to sell - mainly sing local selling page on Facebook as no selling fees. Every time I think I've sold everything I can I find something else - our house will be empty by the time I have finished!!!
Still eating out cupboards and freezer although I have to say I am getting quite frightened by how empty they both look! Don't know why it unnerves me so much!
Have a lovely weekend everyone.
