Morning all. :hello: :hello: It looks as though PaP has had an 'early start' at work again, today, so I'll start the thread rolling.

Usual spiel - Post your Spends - over or under budget - large or small, planned or otherwise.

But most of all:

    Hi all,

    I'm hopeing for a NSD today, mainly because I have a nasty cold and don't feel in the mood for shopping. May have to pop out later and get a few things for mum but I get reimbursed for that so don't include it in spending.

    Am gonna finish all my work early and plan to spend afternoon snuggled up with lemsip and watch a video....
    :eek: Total debt £21,000 :eek:

    I'm hoping for a low one. Possibly 99p if they have any mini salad pots in Sainsburys, if not £1.49.

    Wish me luck
    Current debt - £16,300 :(

    You've just reminded me - I'm off to pay our CT now - £118 :eek: but it is budgeted, so doesn't count on the daily spends thread, even though it hurts to pay it. The annoying thing, here, is that we can no longer pay it at the Council Offices - we have a card for paying at the Post Office.
    I have to walk a mile PAST the Council Office to get to the Post Office. :huh: :huh:

    Anyway, bd - I hope you both enjoy your OH's Birthday Dinner. :beer:

    I'm spending nothing at the moment, at the time of BR I have £80 in one of my halifax savings accounts, which is now going to towards paying off their overdraft, so I'll only end up with a fraction of that, if any of it.

    Even though I'm working, my agency are still dithering about how they are going to pay me.

  • I'm having another NSD today - got a splitting headache so not going anywhere. I might ask OH to pick up some newspapers later but that's his spending and so doesn't count, right? ;)

    £91.50 at the dentist which I can claim back after the postal strike through Westfield.
  • Morning all, I've brought in some boring old cheese sarnies for dinner, so will just be spending £2.40 on a swim tonight. Oh and I might need petrol too so £20 on that but it's a need not a want so that's ok!
