    Another one for today please. Not yesterday as I bought my husband a new suit in the Next sale. I knew I was going to but I would still probably be pushing it to count it as necessary. Today I bought my son new PE shorts on Vinted but not counting it as a spend as I have to get them for him as part of his uniform and I have done it as cost effectively as possible :)

    NSD 2/8 today.

    Paid my cleaner but that comes out of my PIP personal care money.

    Also sent a birthday present to my Dad, which I’m not counting as spending.

    Thanks for comments on my dilemma - @cathybird thanks for the NSD - it was definitely not something I wanted to buy and I actually had to go out of my way to get a car seat.  Marked up as a health requirement.
    Yesterday I spent on an activity for DS in the summer holidays.  Today is a NSD.
