Not today, I went to buy buttons but the shop was closed then I was almost tempted to have lunch at a cafe, but I had soup at home that needed eating, so I popped into the bakers and just got a couple of things for today and tomorrow, so not as expensive as it could have been.Current No Spend Challenge: 2/13
