    Hey don't beat yourself up so much. I found that if I set myself a weekly budget (or in your cast a "set of shifts" budget) it was easier to manage. I bet if you look at you money situation come payday you will have a nice surprise and it will challenge you to do more.

    Evening all!

    Today was much less spending that the others. With only a 1lt bottle of water (95p... I know I could have got it cheaper elsewhere, but it was the price in Boots) and two reduced wraps from Boots (£2.35 down to 75p)

    Just chilled tonight, went out to play pool with the lady and went for a very DFW walk. I think I'm beginning to like this DFW lifestyle, would not have even considered suggesting a walk before (I love walking and apparently, so does she!)
