Thanks for your encouragement Marmite.
My problem isn't a coffee everyday. OH and I used to go twice a week, take work with us and spend a long time there - could cost £25 a week! We've now decided to go once a week instead and try to spend less whilst we're there. Of course there will be exceptions to this eg holiday times and birthday treats. On the plus side - we get a lot of points so have "free" visits and we get lots of work done so it lowers stress levels! We hardly drink alcohol so this does count as our main entertainment/socialising. It's not a dire situation but it's the main area we need to cut back on! (Have reduced/cut out eating out and takeaways easily).

Going down from twice to once a week will certainly make a difference:
I hope that your skinny sachet mocha isn't too big a shock to the system.Knit_Witch wrote: »Pass me a virtual large tea and a cheese/salad baguette please

TODAY IS ANOTHER NSD!
Total now 8
I need coffee after today.
Work was ok, a laugh really because we were fed up of working but we made each other laugh and had friendly banter - and my work friend on the till by me was counting down every minute until we could go home when it hit 2:00pm
But I noticed i wasn't wearing work shoes (i usually change them but i forgot today without realising)
and because my nose piercing healed over, i couldn't get it out and went to the store and they said "it will grow back quickly but there isn't anything there, come back tomorrow and we'll take a look" my heart sank because I knew my stud was in my nose (i could feel the bar) so when I got home me and my dad tried pulling it out, and I managed to do it but it didn't half scare me.
but yeah it was alright ... knees / legs are hurting though.NSD 3/25 | SA: £38.00 | EF: 38.130 -
