    My week hasn't been too great either:

    * Bought a new printer (which only cost £40 from Tesco)
    * Spent £50 on shopping which hasn't even lasted us 5 days! Not good!
    * Been out to Costas twice this week
    * Eaten out 3 times this week, I paid for 2 of these meals :o:o
    Ever wonder about those people who spend £2 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backward.

    Not too bad, €2 / £1.40 on a kebab Froday night and my shopping was €15 / £11.50, but then within that was a cake, ice cream and a couple of bottles of cheapy supermarket diet coke....so could've been better, for the diet and the purse!

    Oh and €2.60 / £1.90 on a hot choc whilst meeting with a friend today. Oops.

    I broke into my pigsback-earned boots vouchers that I had been saving for christmas to buy myself hairdye, shampoo and deoderant.

    If i was maing excuses I'd say that by dying my own hair etc I'm SAVING money, but the reality is I'm getting old and grey and I'm vain:o

    Does spending £853 on a dining room set and a reclining chair count?
