We went out with ds yesterday…..the weather was dire so we ended up in Costco and then big shopping mall across the road from there. Just for a mooch and something to do 😂😂😂😂😂 I ended up spending over £200 😯🫣🥴 That included £35 membership which I split with ds. We certainly get our moneys worth for less than £18 a year each. Non of it was planned but everything would have been purchased at some point at a higher price. Dh saw some sketchers which he likes for £20 something and jeans for £10. I bought a massive piece of gammon for £29 and then it had £10 off that so a real bargain. I’ll take it to dds at Christmas….i do know she usually pays a ridiculous price at the butchers. They’re going away the day after we leave so don’t want any leftovers…I’ll bring whatever is left home with us. A big box of Ferrero Rocher for less than £10. I got my usual cheese which will be grated and frozen along with chicken and sausages. I bought a couple of Christmas presents too…..and a couple of others at M&S across the road. I finally think I know what I’m getting folk for Christmas. I have cut back a lot over the years.
Mmmm….we had a chat about some things and there are decisions to be made over the next few weeks. Depending on the outcome of the first decision, it could mean lots of big changes…..there might be interesting times ahead…..or everything could just stay as it is….all depends on that first decision that is pretty much out of our hands…..January spends - £587.580
