What have you/will you spend today, Wednesday 12th September 2007

PaP is on another 'early start' :eek: so I am starting today's thread - but ONLY until she gets home and can take the reins.

So - to start the ball rolling - I am at home today so I don't intend to spend anything - but that might change. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

So - Post your spends - good or bad - and 'Keep it Low'

    How did your interview go Rog2?

    Although I intended to have an NSD yesterday (and posted that I had done!), I spent an eyewatering £40 last night :eek:

    Even though I'm off out to watch the football tonight, I'm going to try to behave myself and keep the spending to under a fiver.

    How did your interview go Rog2?

    Thanks, pbr - the interview went quite well, although it was a lot shorter than I had expected. They have promised to let me know by tomorrow, although I am not too optimistic - to be honest, if it were not for the fact that I NEED to get back into earning, I don't think I would have applied for it in the first place as it reall wouldn't be using either my qualifications, or my experience - but needs must.

    Enjoy the football - who are you going to watch?
