    Spent too much but DD needed school shoes - £38 (criminal) and a new school coat - £30 (bought it a little large to get two years out of it because i'm a mean mummy!). Hopefully NSD tomorrow xx

    I bought some fresh Aberdeen Angus burgers from Waitrose. Fattening (I'm only having one though), expensive (£3.19 for 4!), but worth every mouthful...mmmmmm!

  • I've had a NSD, however I discovered that I have £169 in a First Direct savings account that I thought I'd emptied and closed over a year ago! AND I rang Homebase and registered my Spend & Save card and they're sending me, wait for it, £2 in vouchers! Ooh, just remembered I rang Tesco Clubcard and told them I'd moved (which I have done 3 times since I last told them) and I have £25 in vouchers coming from them too! Let's hope this good luck lasts!! :)
    Getting older is inevitable, growing up is optional :rotfl:

    Well I failed this evening's test.

    En route home I thought about what I would eat for dinner. Fish and steamed veg which is yummy. However........................ once I'd stepped through the door I looked at the ingredients ready in the fridge and............. shut the door and ordered a Chinese slap-up for the grand sum of £10.80 :D I should be ashamed of myself but I'm not.

    My total spend for today is now £14.40. I'm off to have another glass of wine and watch my Casino Royale DVD.

    Have a good evening everyone. I'm sure I'll be :eek: in the morning once I've checked the sheckels left in my purse :rolleyes:
