London today and didn't spend anything other than budget
Had a lovely morning in the V&A followed by a trip to Covent Garden. Normally this would result in massive spending just for the sake of buying stuff! Not today though, thanks to MSE and this Forum :T Proud to be dealing with my debts!

Thanks Alex and dawnybabes but I fell completely off the wagon today :eek: Went over on grocery budget as I decided to bake a Christmas cake. First one in about 15 years! Also bought tablecloths and a table runner for Christmas which was an unnecessary purchaseWow, you're far too good Rose.

NSD for me today making 1/5.
Also got £9 back off a colleague who had asked me to buy her something and I then forgot all about it! So £9 is going in my sealed pot as it was unexpected money for me
Today was difficult, especially on the AFD front. First day back after half term and it was unusually tough. I know why - but that doesn't make it easier Proud to be dealing with my debts!

Sorry to hear you've had a tough day, but great news on your NSD and the £9 'bonus' too. That's an increase of lots of % on your sealed pot
Pleased to report I had a NSD too and apart from budgeted Osteo and Dental check up this week, I should manage a run of NSDs.

The OH is doing well thank you and still off the smokes :T Tough couple of days to begin with but he's determined now so that's helped him be more positive
Spent £3.70 on lunch today :mad: Went on a course which lasted until 1.30 and they didn't provide any food and I follishly hadn't packed anything for work. Oh well, live and learn:oProud to be dealing with my debts!
