    Hopefully it'll be a NSD for me today! I need it to be - I'm low on funds at the moment. x

    morning pap:wave:

    today:

    spend 75.25 on DS1 school uniform for september. if you bought in a special pack it worked out cheaper. 2 shirts, 2 jumpers, 1 games shirt, 1 games jumper, 1 pair games socks and a pair of games shorts. i thought this was good value. cost taken out of school uniform savings so already planned and budgeted for:)

    £18.00 petrol, taken out of weekly petrol allowance:) £2 change added to PMS yay!

    ebay parcel posted £1.38 paid for from business as was a customer order and not a personal ebay sale.

    all in all a good spending day!

    This should have been a NSD like the last 2 days but I managed to forget my lunch and leave it in the kitchen! I’ve got no soup at work so I’m going to have to buy something. I have a banana which was brought back from a work lunch yesterday that nobody wanted but I don’t think I can survive on only that until dinner tonight!

    I’ll probably go and get a subway, if I can stand the sub of the day I’ll spend £1.99 if not it will be the ham for £2.29.

    Hoping for a NSD. I have £50 left for this month out of my £300 that I give myself. Planning on a bottle of rose while bf is out working Friday, gona catch up on EastEnders!

    Might buy some noodles for dinner though on the way home from work. Technically that shouldn't come out of my money, but shopping budget is already way over, so I may be nice to the joint account and cover the cost. Anyone know how much noodles are?

    Hello everyone - I've not posted on this thread before so hope I'm not butting in.

    I'm really proud of myself because I got my weekly shop today and only spent £16.85 (a bit of a storecupboard challenge going on).

    I also had to buy glucose tablets for my OH who is a Type 1 diabetic (if he gets hypos when he's out they're the only thing for it apparently) and they were 3 for 2 at Superdrug! Hooray!!! 18 packs for £6.60.

    Reading all your posts is such an inspiration - we're about to lose my income as I'm leaving work on Monday because of ill health (and I don't think I'm going to get any benefits as I haven't paid enough NI) and being OS is the only way to keep out of debt.

    Sainsburys = £1.07 for the 6 pack of Sharwoods dried, if thats the stuff you're after :)

    Spent: 60p today, though it's someones birthday at work and i've managed to not chip in as we'd already reached the target before it got to me, hurrah! saved £5
