    Hi all

    I can't spend money at the mo, as had my Play.com account hacked at the weekend and as my CC's were visible in the payment methods section, i've cancelled everything just in case... so today!

    Monday: £0 (HM carrot and coriander soup, yoghurt and pear from home)

    That was the last of the soup, so not sure what i'll be having tomorrow!!! x

    Sorry to hear about your cards.

    How about jam sandwiches like Tigert? :rolleyes:

    Absolutely no idea! Only use my computer at home or work, and I don't have an obvious password - probably some sort of software or something. On plus side, it really has stopped me spending!

    Today: I have a crabstick sandwich (found some lurking in the freezer), a pear and some grapes :) = £0

    Well done Bobbadog :T

    I have also had a NSL today and planning on making it a NSD. :D

    I made a ham, cheese and pickle sandwich at work and had brought in crisps and yoghurt. I'm having a free "work" cup of tea instead of juice from the shop and got my banana and apple to nibble on in a bit :D

    Hmm...not the best week for the lunch log for me. £1.59 on choc-covered ginger at the railway station yesterday. Then today I was starving at lunch time and my quiche slice from home didn't look nearly enough. So went to Tesco and bought 1 bottle of juice for my breakfasts, 2 packs of Nairns Oat Ginger cookies (they were on offer), and a pack of slim a soup. Have polished off a soup, my quiche, a small muffin, and 5 cookies already. :( Total spend today £3.62.

    Never mind Mouche, it happens and at least it isn't everyday which is what I and I'm sure we all were doing :rolleyes:

    I had a day off work today so no lunch for me. It was DS's nursery funday so we had a picnic there.

    I'm going to try and make some of Twinks hobnobs at the weekend to bring into work.

    Hello all!
    Im quite new on here and loving the challenges and stuff!
    Anyways i agree with this one soooo much! I work in a Tesco Express so its so easy to just nip out onto the shop floor to grab something i dont really need and im just eating cos im bored.
    Even when i have made pack up, if i see a sarnie knocked down to 20p i cant hellp myself, but then waste my lunch so i cant be moneysaving can i??!!
    Anyway, back to work tomoro after a week off so will let you know how it goes!!
    Good luck everyone!

    Thanks Naomi...you're right and I shouldn't beat myself up about it. And go into a spiral and stuff myself everyday now I've done it once! Have my lunch with me today so hopefully nothing will go wrong. Have a nice day everyone - hope the weather gets better.
