    £5 spent today on rubbish but I don't really mind as I got paid today, more then I expected.

    mr1971, I wouldn't count those items but things like
    purfumes, make - up , and those types of things :)

    or like me wear make-up is a must (Foundation at least) ,
    I personally wouldn't count 1 bottle of it if i've run out of all mine but I would count it if i had a big stash of it and brought it just because it was there - if that makes sense?

    I may take a trip into peacocks to buy a Christmas jumper for £12 as work is holding a charity "Christmas jumper" event so I'd like to take part in that and the pound shop to see what beauty stuff i can snag. I heard on a blog they sell Barry M nail varnish, rimmel make-up ect... for a fraction of their usual price.

    Still at £5.68 spent. I'm very happy as even £10 would have been much better than usual. Thanks for the thread and look forward to next month

    I have £3 left of my £5 but I had to use the £5 note to buy a christmas present from a cash only stall.... Well done to everyone though, good sums at the end of the day!
