Spend day tomorrow, getting my nails done, but taking a jumper dress back, money better in my account than keeping an outfit I won't wear.

Well I'm feeling a little hard done by re returning the jumper dress. I had purchased items with debit card and gift card, well apparently because most of the spend was done on gift card (£40, £36 on debit card) I have to have the return on a gift card. :mad::mad: so £24 on gift card not in my account. :mad:

NSD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've finally come in under budget

I have a load of stuff on this weekend, so in case I forget to post, can I please go for £60 for the coming week? This is to cover all general spends as well as food (but not bus fares as I have them put aside already)

That's irritating! In this day and age it can't be too difficult to refund what you spent on gift card to a card and give you the rest on to debit

Sunday: £4.99 toaster, £3 thermos for work
Monday: NSD
Tuesday: NSD
Wednesday: NSD - laziness prevailed and I couldn't be bothered to collect takeout
Thursday: £3 on birthday cards
Friday: NSD
Saturday: £6.99 on a bin for my bathroom ( I'm with you and your wooden spoon mooomin - we are so rock and roll!) and £4 on one of the big Yankee candle jars.

That means I'm green at £21.98/£50.00
