    Not one today, I have been out and I spent £16.20 on two scones, three drinks. I spent £3.00 on a donation, and I bought the lampshade I have been after saving £10 by going online instead and further £4.50 as I had a newbie discount. I am done now, although I wish for Cod and Chips tonight tbh but I'll try and avoid if possible. Although I might get them yet 😉.

    Sometime later...I did buy the fish and chips they were not good, big mistake. And I also purchased a second hand radiator for £30 saving a lot of money, as it is very nice and worth brand new £270, Looking forward to it being plumbed in.

    2/12 NSD today. I tend to count all my spends as it doesn't count as an NSD for me even though I withdraw cash to spend on groceries and fuel etc these days. Makes me more accountable and easier manage my finances.
