    Today I spent, but made a sensible alternative purchase. I bought a box hair colour, need to cover these roots! It was much cheaper than an appointment at my hairdresser. 
    Tomorrow I will do better.
    well done everyone, it’s great to read along and have to really think about spending.

    Good morning 
    One today please making it 6/15, tomorrow won’t be cos we’ve nearly reached the end of the Xmas food and it will Ben cheaper in the long run to do an online shop than keep buying bits ( and the extras that jump into your basket)

  • Not one today, I have decided to go for a potter into town. As I WHF I don't get out much and can spend 4-5 days without going further than walking the dog, so it's nice to be a bit sociable.
