    Don't think I'll be able to save anything this month (September) as I have just bought an early Christmas present for my grandsons which will have to come out of that budget but it does mean I won't be spending as much at Christmas. They really wanted a puppet theatre and I saw one at a good price and couldn't resist. I am letting them have it early as I want them to get as much use out of it as they can.
