Hi all,
Popped to Tescos to get my petrol - £15, although doesn't really count as DH gave me back the money for using my petrol/ car for his work yesterday.
Spent approx £15 in Tesco (still to add up my 3 receipts) on apile of magazines, 2 x 2ltr value sparkling water, Tesco diet cola 2ltr, 1 x Tesco value birthday card, 1 X kELLOGS Bran flakes, 2 x baby short sleeve tops (50p each), 1 x baby hat (£0.50) and 1 baby short sleeve top and denim dress set (£2). Used £3.50 in coupons.
Got The Sun paper with a free Sun voucher and got 2 points added for re-suing a bag. Also got a till spit which I will try to use in my next shop.
Got a couple of till receipts with points added at customer services.
Wasn't intending to buy any baby clothes but at that price I couldn't resist.. Hope one of my friends has a baby girl or more friends get pregnant.
No more spending until tomorrow.Tesco points: 101 (£21.50, £19.50, £7.50, £21 & £5)

Is it odd that I actually enjoy reading what people are spending their money on? I could just read for hours about how someone spent £1 on talc or £4 on fruit. Is that weird?
Anyway, today I said I would spend £1.50 on Bread and Soap.
Unfortunately, I did'nt realise:
a) How much soap costs.
b) That I needed some milk
c) That I had such low willpower, and such a sweet tooth.
I actually spent £3.65
39p overspend on original items
76p overspend on milk
£1 overspend on tesco 3 for a quid sweets.
Oh well, hoping for an NSD tomorow!Working to make our future as secure and comfortable as possible.0 -

Right - have just got back from Mr T's where I spent £7.48 on a 'fridge pack' of Tetleys Smoothflow. It's now in the fridge and I'll be settlung down to watch the match at 7.30. :T :T'Come on Wilkinson!'
Have to be honest and say that I'm not sure that England can work the same magic against France as they did against Australia - but should be a great game, whatever the result. :beer:I am NOT, nor do I profess to be, a Qualified Debt Adviser. I have made MANY mistakes and have OFTEN been the unwitting victim of the the shamefull tactics of the Financial Industry.
If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.
