    A small spend today of £3.14. It would of been rude not to spend it though, for that I got a large bag of live mussels
    2 haddock fillets
    A prawn mayonaisse sandwich
    And 6 eggs

    Everyone sounds like they are doing well. Well done to those declaring under budget.

    Spend of £28.77 today in Asd* and B and M, which included about a pounds worth of Ys pancakes, hotdog rollsand square sandwich thins.I may need to go back tomorrow (have a weekly bus ticket for work) as I forgot a few bits. Will be minimal spends though then, and taking back three pairs of leggings that don't fit DD2. Wish i knew where i could get her some decent trousers as we are struggling to find anything she will fit in at the mo and she is only 10.
