    ok, I went shopping today and spent... £151:eek:

    £100 was on the asda christmas card so itwould hit the £144 target to get the £6 bonus tomorrow (or Tuesday) though.

    Also bought lunch each day at work last week - but back to menu planning and taking a packed lunch with me!

    I went over budget on my Xmas shopping by £35.

    Went out on Friday night on a hen night and spent £20.

    Bought sausage rolls and cheese scones for lunch on Saturday £3.60

    Other than that, I have been good this week, and everything else I have spent has been budgeted for.

    Haven't really had any bad shopping spends, but have bought lunch more times than not this week so must stop that - would have had a few NSDs if it wasn't for that. Say this every week, but here's to a low spend week ahead...

    Oooooh I has been a BAAAAAD DFW :D

    Went out for dinner last night with a mate - first time I've seen her in nearly a year, £20 for all you can eat chinese and drinks. Got a lift there and back though, so that was ok.

    Went to visit my sister at work in QS - thought I'd get a pair of gloves as I was freezing. Turns out they have an offer on though buy 2 of anything, get 2 free! So I bought 2 x PJs (I live in PJs as I work from home, and don't see the point in wearing out my more expensive good clothes) 2 x Jumpers, a new dressing gown, a pair of gloves, and 2 x presents for xmas. Sis turned round and said I couldn't have staff discount as well at 25%, but I could use my OU student card and get 20% off. So all that for £25 :D Well, it'd be churlish not to, especially as I needed new jimmies lol.

    Other than that, no other spends planned other than my driving lesson next week.
