Steps getting coop deal of two pizzas and a pack of beer for £5, and my birthday freebie from Greggs. Went for a Belgian Bun, it was lush
Steps back to coop after I got home and bank app said I'd been charged twice. Apparently this happens all the time and I should receive an automatic refund 👀

I didn’t realise they’re still doing that offer. It’s a good one, the pizzas are nice and Mr SA enjoys the beer.
Enjoy the football ⚽️I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping) -.literally have been run over by a bike, mobility scooter and a car - still here 💪1 -
I think it's on until something like the 21st @Sun_Addict though don't rely on that as I can't see the deal on the app anymore. Such a bargain though, we're just passing the bud onto a lager drinking friend as £2.50 per pizza is a good price these days anyway!

Busy day. Beer, scrolling & sofa time defo deserved.
2026's challenges: 1) To rebuild our Emergency Fund to at least £5k.
2) To read 50 books (12/50) 3) The Re-Shrinking of Foxgloves 8.1kg/30kg
Remember....if you have to put it on a credit card, extend your overdraft or take out a loan to buy whatever it is, you probably can't afford it, as that's not your money, it's somebody else's!4 -
Belated happy birthday to Mr PIP 🍻
Have a lovely relaxing evening.
