Not one today, I ended up buying a certain strawberry filled sandwich after being sucked in by the fad! I also got my kids a wallet each- they are out for a birthday party at a theme park on Sunday and they need to take money. These came from my Vinted earnings so I have gone back down the ladder to £75. Going to aim to get back to £100 again by month end x2
