Breakfast and lunch today was paid for using a gift card I was given for Christmas, the staff must think I'm a right pain in the butt using a gift card to pay for something that's 60p but who cares :rotfl:
Remembered to bring leftover pitta bread home, a couple to go with houmous that's being delivered tomorrow and a couple to freeze for another day.
Dinner from the freezer tonight which is a big step forward for me as Friday night often turns into takeaway night but we're having Southern fried chicken grill thingys with coleslaw and DH will have his in a crusty roll providing the rolls defrost in time. (I'm on a diet so no roll for me!)
Edited to add: I put a yellow-stickered basics apple pie from the freezer in to cook at the same time for when DH is craving something sweet later. I have a bowl of satsumas if I'm feeling hard done by but I'm feeling stuffed now my stomach has got used to less food.Make £25 a day in April £0/£750 (March £584, February £602, January £883.66)
December £361.54, November £322.28, October £288.52, September £374.30, August £223.95, July £71.45, June £251.22, May£119.33, April £236.24, March £106.74, Feb £40.99, Jan £98.54) Total for 2017 - £2,495.100 -

Thanks for launching, Ziggy.
Have grim cold and sore throat but had a no spend day by:
1. Working 9.30 - 3 from home. Earned about£130 after tax so worth having for sure.
2. Checked bank
3. Watched TV in evening instead of going out - trashy but a good laugh
4. Found mummified lem sips in the drawer - out of date by 3 months but I am still breathing so can't be that bad
5. Found receipts to process for expenses
