    60p for me on a can of diet coke. Am at work but celebrating as OH has a new job and starts on Monday! Hurrah! We can get back on track again!
    OH has spent about £8 on veggies etc for the week too.

    Hope you've all had a good day so far- hang on in there, Rog2! x

    I'll say this very quietly so I don't get yelled at but i've spent £25.00 on a cake tin. Yikes, I know....but it is one of those that can lots of different sizes and I want to start baking for packed lunches, treats etc as that'll save money / be tastier. I'll have to make sure I do lots of baking to make sure it pays for itself. Used it once already and the chocolate brownies are yummy! That's it for me now, no more spending until next week xx
    January budget
    Nothing left!
  • £91 on food (gulp). It's a lot but did include stocking up on special offers for the freezer (got about 3 months supply of frubes now as it was bogof and I buy 1 a week anyway for lunchboxes). I'll need a bigger freezer soon but I'm sure I'd soon make the money back!

    Hi all :)

    Today's spends are:

    £1.50 bus fare
    £0.60 on chewing gum & a packet of crisps :naughty:
    £9.40 on some MOP conditioner (includes p&p) which I got through QuidCo and also used a £2 off e-voucher.

    I hope they will send me some decent samples with the hair conditioner - you can sell the good ones on EBAY! :rotfl:

    PS Am popping out for a couple of diet cokes later - say £5 tops later in the pub. Planned for anyway.
    Bank Balance: In the black for the moment.
