    I didn't go to the cinema last night, so i didn't spend anything yesterday. Will be going this evening instead. I've made my own lunch the last two days to keep money in my pocket.

    Considering getting a Macbook Pro when Apple release updated models, which might be this month. Regardless of when they are released I think I will wait until beginning of March before getting one , so I can spread it over two paydays and ask for birthday contributions!

    Good afternoon everybody :hello: :hello: :hello:

    Didn't post last week as I was away on business. Spent far too much, but most of it was 'reclaimable' so my total 'own' spend was about £50 (am trying to claim back £20 of that, but not hopeful :rolleyes: ).

    Anyway, it's 'back to reality' this week and yesterday was, indeed, a No Spend Day. :T :T

    Today, however, I need to get bread and milk - so will be trekking to ASDA in an hour or so - heading straight to the 'reduced' counter. :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Shouldn't spend more than £2.50 :confused: If I do I'll post later.

    It's looking like 3 NSDs in a row. I'll confirm or deny later.

    Hello all,
    Another NSD for me - I think it'll be the last one for a while though, there's only so long you can put off buying some things!

    I'll have to keep it tight though - as I've put this weeks budget straight into savings, so I've just short of £8 left from last weeks to last me....

    Evening everyone - hope you've all had a good day.

    I was hoping for a NSD today but ended up spending 38p on a tv mag - I ought to put that in our budget - and 99p for a punnet of pretty tasteless grapes.

    I'm going to my knit and natter group tomorrow and I'm determined not to buy any more wool until I use up the bags of stuff I've already got so I think I'd better leave my purse at home.

    I'll try for £2 tops tomorrow.
