Well todays spend was a lot lower than I expected. So a good end to the month. Nothing major planned for March so am looking forward to big savings.It's really easy to default to cynicism these days, since you are almost always certain to be right.0

Declaring Feb as under by £8.93. Took £100 off our budget as we were away, fully catered for a week. Having said that, it was £120 for kennels and £35 for our dog to be clipped, so didn't really save anything
See you on the March thread.
