    Evening All,

    Well.. just home from work, and here is my update to my post at 6.30am this morning.

    I managed to spend 1.60 against my budget of 2.00, so a saving of 40p :T

    I did have to fill the car up with petrol, cost 32.00, but this is in my monthly budget so is not really included in this "Online Spending Diary".

    I paid off the credit card, so next month the snowball gets bigger.... :j

    Have a good evening all


    Regards
    24 hours in a day. 24 beers in a case ... coincidence? :beer:

    Aswell as lunch (£7.00ish) I bought some groceries in Sainsburys, £10.79 - got loads for my money too. Because its a "local" sainsburys, they tend to reduce items towards the end of the work day, so i went in there at 5pm and got loads of bargains. Whooo!! It sounds bad that i spent £17.79 in total, but oh well, had to get groceries (perhaps shouldnt have gone out to lunch though.....) OOoops. :0)

    Oooooo. Big day yesterday. Took £250 out of my savings account, but put it straight back into another account (complicated story about being able to write cheques). I was in Manchester for the day, so splashed out in a Pret lunch - once in a blue moon occurance, so don't feel guilty about it.
    We are doing up the front garden so spent £280 in B&Q last night on 2 stone circles! It'll be nice when it's finished..............
