    My totals now at £8.96.

    If I can get that much after only a few days it's a bit worrying. I think I'll have to go back to a spending diary!

    i've managed to save £3.46 this week, but as it is the beginning of the month on wednesday I'm only going to use cash for everything and leave my debit card at home.

    I'm at 2.97. I raided the car and jacket pockets for change.
    CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J
