Hi All
Various today.

£50 new glasses for OH paid for by work.
£1.04 saved on an Amazon order which was from an old gift card.
£5.20 on two coffees, one from loyalty points and one another Mum treated me to on our playdate.
20p roadkill.
£1.50 bus spends (used DHs card so I didn't spend)
£4 DH saving by WFH (although he still did the morning school run so his card cost him £4.50 today)
That's not a bad days result.
