Mumzy, the washing is clean, smells very slightly strange but I'm used to it not smelling of anything (I use ecoballs) so I'll see what it's like once it's dry but I might use oils with it next time.
Frankie, is that for everything or just essentials? That might help you work out a realistic target.The 1,000 Day Challenge:Feb 16, 2016500/30,000

bails,
thats for everything except mortgage, council tax, water and phone/ broadband cause DH gets that expensed...
Its a lot isn't it.....but as I said, I'm hoping some of that will reduce. The amount I gave also included 2 lots of car tax at £180 each and music lesson for 2 children at £360 each.....
I personally prefer to add everything....0 -
I am here. I am pretending to work but actually I am playing Sudoku. Considering having an early night as my LO has started a habit to get me up at half five in the morning. Ouch!

Spent too much today,£80.A one off glitch and back on track tomorrow with avengance.Still a small spree compared to my pre MSE spending sprees.
I did need the 2 dog beds @£20 each and they were good value for our great big dogs,but I could have done without the takeaway and the framed print.
Good luck with your own targets everyone!!!"Reaching out to touch the stars dont forget the flowers at your feet".0
