    Did you pay with a cashback credit card?! /quote]

    Nice idea, pbr - but, in fairness she COULD have given me change for the £1 coin, in pennies (I probably would ;) ) or I could have bought more bread, but that would have been greedy. :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Enjoy your night out. :beer:

    £39 at the dentist having a broken root extracted : an old crown collapsed and not enough left to save. Shall get half back via HSA, so cost to me £19.50!
    £1.45 posting an e-bay parcel : money is in paypal, so really NS.
    £16.70 for holiday photos - local shop does them for 10p a print.
    = £36.20 total cost.
    I can cook and sew, make flowers grow.

    1.50 on soup for lunch. This is because I decided to have my frozen lunch for dinner instead to avoid me feeling hungry when I'm in the pub and being tempted by expensive food. If my motivation lasts I will drink water in the pub but I'm only seeing one person tonight so it would be a good opportunity to have a drink without having to get into a hugely expensive round situation. So maybe a few quid more.
