    One yesterday, not one today as I have been sucked into the Black Friday sales and bought 2 hot stone massage vouchers for me and my hub for Christmas, to go with the spa night I bought earlier in the month. I was going to buy us both massages anyway, so it was something I was planning to spend, just not yet.The last time we had a night away without the children was our 5th wedding anniversary and it is our 13th next week so it is long over due. 

    I have put the direct debit up on our mortgage for January onwards, we have worked so hard to get to the point that we can afford to over pay-  so I think a treat is well deserved. Watching my daily spends has definitely contributed so thank you all. 

    Hoping for no more spe4nds this week - see how we go. Good luck for this week everyone xx
