I bought groceries which I don't count, but then I bought a toilet seat which i count as a spend, I bought one box of tiles which cost £51 ouch, for the purpose of tiling the kitchen, I only needed one extra box to do the Kitchen as well (just had the bathroom done). Yesterday I also bought tiles to do the wall in the kitchen, I also bought today a shower screen sealer. I am starting to think Feb will be a write off!2

It can really help with projects or upcoming expenses to make a list and every time you realise you will need something add it to the list. That way you can get all the spends out of the way on the same day by buying everything on the list. Delaying purchases can be good anyway because sometimes you realise you didn't want or need the item anyway! I don't know if that helps? Don't write Feb off just yet!
