Can't see this anywhere - apologies if duplicated.
OK I have blown my weekly budget sky high - in fact I think my budget is passing, in orbit, somewhere over Kuala Lumper right now.
Here's the damage today:
£65.00 - hair cut & colour & temporary straightening
£1.80 return bus fare
£56.75 on some half price clothes in the surf-y type shop (major weakness)
£15 on some new Caterpillar flip flops (reduced from £35 and my others are crumbling!)
The good news is - I resisted the Planet trousers at £39 (reduced from £100) in the John Lewis sale and I got a free lunch on Boots points!
OK how about you today?

Haven't spent a penny today. Did loads of housework, walked Kiki, went on my treadmill, had lunch at fiance's sisters, staying in tonight and making a nice beef casserole - and drinking any wine that doesn't go in it! lolDream of being mortgage free....

Cheers, JD, I'm with you :beer:, Blossom Hill zinfandel! But not today, it's a NSD day here for me so far and I want to keep it that way.Official DFW Nerd Club - Member # 593 - Proud To Be Dealing With My Debts!0 -
'Fraid I spent a lot of money today (daren't say how much), needed some holiday clothes and an outfit for a forthcoming wedding. But hopefully I have everything I need now.
