    Morning all

    Sun - £20.45 (Papers, chocolate & a trip to Sainsburys)
    Mon - NSD:D

    Total - £20.45/£80

    I promised nephew no 2 that I would get him a cupcake if he gave me a slice of pizza last night so that will be a small spend:)
  • Couple of NSD's here. Although really hard to separate spends between this, groceries and Xmas spends. But have allocated the £30 for a couple of planned coffees this week.

    Hope everyone's well.

    Evening all

    I'm claiming today as another NSD but although I spent money on a cupcake (nephew) and coffee (me) my work allowance covers it:).

  • I'm going to be a big fat red this week. :mad: Bl00dy Xmas. I love Xmas and am very excited, however it is playing havoc with my spends.

    £16 something today out of this budget, £6 on treats to add to pressies already bought. Milk and honey and then stamps.... How much are they these days.....

    So damage limitation now. 2 days of coffees and a possible lunch coming up, so will have to be careful.

    First post updated to here.

    Well done to those nabbing NSD's so far.

    Is everyone prepared for Xmas? Or are you all last minute dashers like me? :D

    Paid for a taxi yesterday but not counting it as it's claimable through work :D

    Also paid £2.20 for water in the airport (!) and, brace yourselves, £5.80 for one bottle of beer while in London for our staff lunch. Jings.

    That leaves me with £32 for the week. As my meal out on Friday will cost at least £30 I'll be amazed if I'm in budget, but it's once again about damage control for me ;)
