    Hi PAP - I was just about to start a new one as I couldn't see one.
    Well done for starting it again honey.

    I have spent:

    £1.50 bus fare
    £10 topping up mobile which was about to run out. I fear this will tip my weekly pledge/budget over the edge - I forgot it was low! :doh:

    Grocery shopping later - hopefully will be under budget (£50) but will try to update later.

    EDIT: Groceries came to £33.51 :j

    Hi PaP - I've had another No Spending Day - but should have spent £18.00 on a train ticket, to the airport - went to the station but the ticket office was closed. :mad: :mad:
    That means I'll have to get it on the train - 5.30 tomorrow morning.:eek:

    Early start for me, as well, tomorrow. Have to be at Bournemouth Airport for 8.30 - the only train I can get, will get me there at 7.30, so I'll probably be spending a couple of pounds on a very expensive cup of coffee. :rolleyes:

    Never mind - late lunch in Pisa should make up for that. :beer:

    Yes - that's deliberately done so that you have to pay more (or am I an old cynic?). Anyway, have a great time in Pisa!

    My boss very kindly bought my lunch today, so a NSD for little me! I also cycled to work, which will sort of have an impact on spending as I won't have to fill up with diesel quite so soon!
    Overpay!

    Hi PaP

    I spent £15 of vouchers on a picture (to complete a set) that I wanted for my birthday, hubby couldn't remember which picture so gave me a voucher. But vouchers don't count do they?

    Also spent 49p on picture hooks so I could hammer them onto the wall and £6.85 on a prescription (for the stop smoking drug - so that's really an investment)!!!

    I'm going to try for NSD for the rest of this week!
