  • So went out last night. Took our last £20 with me and came back with £27! As I drove my friends bought me my drinks and they also gave me some diesel money (I didn't ask for this but they left it in my cup holder) so we've done a top up shop today which should hopefully see us through to payday this friday! We still have £5 left xx

  • I should clarify as well I had never intended on spending our final £20 on a night out, it was just we only had a £20 note, I had budgeted a fiver tops as I was planning on just having cordial in every other pub, im preg anyways so didnt want to drink loads of fizzy drinks and feel bloated :) xx
