I am sorry to say I wasn't a huge fan, I suspected I wouldn't be when I first saw it advertised, but then, alas, I got caught up in the fanfare of it.beanielou said:
REview of said sandwich?laurenh1 said: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 x

One today which puts me at 10. Hurrah. I have also had a refund of £15 from my children's swimming lessons as they have cancelled Friday's session, I am going to use this to replace some of the money I spent yesterday from my Vinted pot, which is actually now made up of a few different things and not only things I have sold. So my treats pot now sits at £90. I will get a payment next week from interest on one of my savings accounts so this should get me to my £100 aim.3
