    Hi there all, I bought my 5 potions of fruit this morning from my local Tesco but will be going to the market tomorrow as it's much cheaper from there and will stock up for the week. So my spend today has, and will stay at, 92p.Hope everyone has a good day.

    I had a bit of a splurge today and treated myself to some new clothes

    £35 in matalan (jumper, dress, cardigan, leggins - plus 10% student discount)
    £13 in a cheapy local shop (jeans for £5 and 2 jackets for £8 - bargain!)
    £4 in sainsburys on scarf and gloves

    Now I feel terribly guilty, although I shouldn't as we have a £50 a month clothes budget .... I just normally spend it on the kids instead of me.

    I have spent £0.48 on a stamp (for EBAY) and I am hoping that will be it today.

    Doodledo....I really hope you get good news. Fingers crossed for you.

    Well I don't need to spend anything, in fact I never do, as I budget everything apart from personal spends.

    I am aiming for a NSD as I'm trying not to drink during the week and if I fancy a crafty cigar, then we bought a whole box when we were in France last week.

    I'm going to try and not spend any money until Thurs when I have to buy dinner (go college and need something to eat) and that's it.
