    Today I will go and buy
    * Saturday Times for the 'originals' voucher
    * 3 bottles of Lidl cola + Lidl strawberries
    *the best value Egyptian pounds that are available here, = £50 (cash!!), will get the rest in travellers cheques (too late to open a cheap card account) later. BTW: Much better to exchange money in Egypt as you get approx 10% more!
    * shall 'shop from home' for rest of meals as want to empty the freezer.
    I can cook and sew, make flowers grow.

    I drank my wine last night that was meant for my bbq today! So I will now have to pop out and buy some beers when I finish work. About £3.50 I reckon.

    Aiming for a NSD today, but think I will need to spend £1.60 on coffee in return for a friend taking DS out.

    Got paid today :j And... I still had money left from last month! :eek::D:j Not loads, but that hasn't happened for a long time... I'm talking years!! And that's despite going over my grocery budget and a couple of the weekly challenges. Lots of credit (bad choice of word lol) has to go to you lot on here as a great inspiration :)

    So far I've spent £2.49 on milk, cheese and tea bags (bit overpriced from Spar but couldn't be bothered getting rained on going to supermarket, and at least I had a 50p off Yorkshire Tea voucher :D).. plus about a tenner on a couple of bits off eBay (a top and a CD - my treats to myself for the month)... maybe going out later so that'll be a bit more but will try not to overdo it.
