How Much Have You Spent Today??

Ember999

Bought a cup of tea and an egg custard (which was a huge portion :j ) in little bistro cafe £1.85

Bought a beautiful blue bracelet (little crystal type things and blue hearts etc.) in a gift shop I passed and just had to browse in £4.99

£1 parking ticket (will be refunded as I was on a Mystery Shopping job )

Then on the way home called into Makro and bought groceries, Milk, Butter, 4 packs (duel packs) of french batons (great for sandwiches in this weather!) 2 trays of Whiskas (24 cans) 1 tray of HP Baked Beans, catering pack of Kitchen Towel, squeezy honey, etc. etc...spent £30 in Makro :T

That's about it! Oh yeah, forgot to say (ashamed to say :A ) bought a bottle of Luxury Bath Oil in the shop I bought the bracelet in. That cost a whopping £8.99 but I liked the blue bottle, can re-use it when it is empty and I just had to have it I know....I know....I'm saying nowt!

So, not been very good today, spent £14 on treats in a gift shop I wouldn't have gone in had I not been in a strange town on a Mystery Shopping job. But, I am shortly going to go have a bath and try the new bath oil and hopefully, it will be blissful and worth every penny.

I have 2 more Mystery Shopping Jobs tomorrow in the city and I am NOT going to spend any money apart from the item I have to buy that they will refund my money for. Phew!

I had a late lunch today, went at 2.00 pm but by 1.00 pm was getting too hungry so bought a packet of crisps from the machine - 50p. Went home for lunch though I have to drive back as it's an hours walk.

Have just spent £3.00 on a special offer for Eve magazine found on this site - love magazines but the price of them is crazy so this site has really helped.

Everything else I consumed today was already in my cupboard, fridge or petrol tank - total cash parted with today was £3.50.

I spent over £130 today.

Have 2 interviews next week and I needed a dark coloured suit and ended up in M&S. (Did try ASDA's but they had no suits at all)

The jacket was £65, the skirt £25, 2 blouses @ £19.50 each and 2 bras @ £24 for the pair. (one of the blouses will be going back though)

This is offset by the fact that I'm due a £40 cheque and if I get either job, my salary will go up by 50%.

So please keep all fingers crossed!

Your new suit sounds lovely, I am sure you will look the part

Fingers crossed for you, hope you get your new job, feeling smart and good in your new clothes will go a long way to help xx

......my mum said, when I tried it on for her, it was the smartest she'd seen me for a long time.

Now should I take that as a compliment ?????

It's her way of saying you look gorgeous and she is proud of you
For sure it's a compliment :j
