    Evening everyone :D

    Today's spends all budgetted for:
    • £12.50 on a DialNow account so I can call mobiles in Jamaica as cheaply as possible (from my personal allowance)
    • £5.19 in Lidl (from food budget)
    • £2 on 2for1 Jacobs crackers and a packet of Tetley's (ditto)
    • £1.35 on Jamaican bread (ditto)
    Actually the £12.50 means I'll have to have more NSDs during the rest of the month, so I don't have to take from other pots or use my overdraft :eek:. Food budget is on track, at the moment.

    Update: Forgot to add I also put away 50p in my sealed bottle.

    £6.99 on a much needed windscreen wiper. Should have bought it from eBay but I've bought the wrong one before so I went to Halfords to make sure I got the correct one! :rolleyes:
    Went to the supermarket with a strict list which should have been no more than £11 but I made the mistake of taking OH with me - £55 later :eek: but he offered to pay when I had a stressie, so although its joint, he's paid for it. We still have £93 left for the months food but I wanted to get it very low. :(
    Will stop waffling now!

  • Hi rog, PAPs et al.

    Today I spent £9.99 on oil for my car, £0.75 on cornflour, and £17.62 on posting birthday gifts for my two sisters. One lives in New Zealand, the other one in South Africa. Not to bad as I didn't waste any money today, so I am happy with that.

    And tonight for dinner I'm having steak, salad, egg and chips, HM of course and out of my freezer, so don't need to spend any money there. Have a good evening everyone.

    Cheers
    CTFG

    Today I spent
    Parking at the shopping centre £2.50
    Parking for a kids party £3.60
    lunch (me & 2 kids) £6.20
    Books (for kids) £13.96
    clothes (kids) £33.00
    uniform (kids) £14.00
    car valet £20.00

    I know the car valet is a luxury but it was minging. My garage is on a block no where near my house so I can't stretch the hoover there. And it was covered in black yuk from the road. Oh & it has a MOT on Mon so I thought if it was spotless they might be nice ;)

    So in total £95.96.

    Payday friday & have enough money to last till then, so I am :D
