  • Another day of leftover lunch. We were lucky enough to be brought dinner yesterday, and it was pizza, so we had a fair few slices left, just re-heated them and am having them - so free lunch, and saving on bread too!! (same extra's as yesterday too!)

    Didn't spend anything today as I brought leftover pasta for lunch. Might cost me a little extra to get the tomato sauce out of my top though! I should bring a bib to work!
    Overpay!

    Fletch, honestly, not all that posh - got the melon for 50p! cos I live on my own I use my local shops and buy little and often, which works out cheaper for me than using the big supermarkets. Also, am on a high protein kick at the mo, so no sarnies for me, which are much easier! (mmmm, bread...drool)

    Another no spend day anyway - mozzarrella, tomato & basil salad; fruit & nuts.

    Morning!

    I have salad (not a lot of lettuce, mainly chunky carrot, celery, orange pepper and beetroot), a chopped up chicken breast with cajun spice on, and a yeo valley low fat yoghurt thing. And an orange. NSD here! x

    Was on holiday till Monday night and that spending comes out of the holiday fund so my week starts Tuesday.

    Tuesday - £0 (working from home so ate a ready meal that had been lying around for ages)
    Wednesday - £0 (leftover spinach curry wrapped in a tortilla. Yay!)

    Had a doughnut for breakfast. I did buy the doughnut but I actually bought 24 of them to celebrate my wedding anniversary with people at work. So I'm not counting this expense as a breakfast/lunch expense.

    Two days to go this week. Hope it's a no spend week!
