    i spent £5 on my scan photo (do feel it was a waste of money as baby was moving way too much) other than that it would have been a nsd.

    Awww - I don't think this is a waste of money... I think it'll be something you look back at in years to come and it will be invaluable!

    Anyway, NSD here, second in a row :j I took lunch into work, which was bought on Monday, used my bus pass to get there, which was paid back in September and resisted the urge to have a look in the snack van! Yay -hoping to keep this up - it's such a good feeling!

    Nothing, lost my job today (luckily got a months pay in the bank today too!), on a week's notice. Spent £3 on lunch treats, and bf is taking me out tonight to cheer me up!


    Oh no barbie hugbybciemnyka6.gif hope you get something soon, and glad you got bf there for support.

    NSD for me, I finished work at 6am, and I only got out of bed an hour ago! Good job I'm not in tonight, and I've got all tomorrow off too!

    £5 on lunch with a friend, got a free paper today on Princes Street, also rescued one from the paper recycling bin at work, and bought £3 worth of essentials in Iceland on the way home.
    Almost debt-free, but certainly even with the Banks!
