Lol, we've just eaten a Christmas pud. It was a little Heston two person sized one with a clementine inside, loaded with Courvoisier cream. Delicious but feeling a bit piggyish now

Mmm. Same! I'm sitting here 'waiting for it to go down' haha.

Think I'm gona start a weekly MSE spreadsheet. There was talk of something earlier but I can't find it now. Mine will pen and paper though lol. I will be very interested to see what my contribution to the household income is. I feel because of my problems which means no job and no income at all , I think this will be good for me to have the figures each week. Has anyone any thoughts on how to go about laying this out.

why did you not get the toblerone, whatever you pay in store, it still works out at 68p ish

I know this question wasn't directed at me but my reason was that I went to sada with a £7.71 apg to use.I was intending to buy 1 toblerone for £3 and 4 packs of biscuits for £4 and allowing £1 for fillers leaving me with 29p to pay but the tob was £4 and the biscuits were 2 for £2.50 so I would have had to fork out more cash and I had no intention of doing that when I didn't need the choc or biscuits anyway.

I was a bit like this today sal......I had my shop planned to within an inch of it's life:rotfl: .......with pennies to pay over the top of my womble. Then when the foxes biscuits went through at the wrong price I felt annoyed:rotfl:......even though it meant getting a giftcard.

I am trying to have a no spend January :cool:

I couldn't be bothered to do 2 shops, plus I nearly ate a whole toblerone the other day and felt a bit sick so that put me off a little

I'm certainly not loaded, well not now anyway. I've recently bought a DSLR camera ( Argos misprice )
Xbox one ( prezzy for myself)
and a 55" 3D TV ( The wife wasn't home to say no :rotfl: )

So very poor at the mo
