Saturdays are bad for me, it's when I spend the most money all week. Today it was £40 at Tesco (£49 before discounts) £24 meat, fish and veg at the market, we are entertaining family & friends tomorrow and needed some extra meat, salad etc.

Far too much in Boots (£82), but I stocked up on 3 for 2, bought toiletries, a decent speed travel hairdryer and sunscreen/aftersun for my daughter's holiday, and in my defence I used my last 10% off voucher from last months magazine so I bought some stuff I don't really need yet (hairspray etc) but I will in the next few weeks.:money:

Blimey I nearly had a fit spending £5.45 in boots yesterday on a bottle of water, a sandwhich and some desperatly needed pain killers to get me home (i'd run out of them in the car) :eek: :eek: Spent nothing today :T I've often wondered though if it does work out cheaper to buy the 3 for 2 on toiletries in Boots, i think i will have a look. Whats anyone elses opinion on this?

Like EMBER999 I thought £82 in Boots! All I can say is I would love to spend £82 in Boots but don't have it. I'll stick to my Skittles instead. Only red ones left, good.

If you have a savers near you i'd recommend going there. Our closest one is the next village to us and although i don't drive (i'm booking my test again on monday) it's worth spending bus fair to get there for the money we save on toiletries!! Saying that, i have bought 3 for 2 from boots (normally deoderant / shower gel etc) when we're looking around there anyway.

Thought I was bad when I visit Boots, my average spend is about £40. Usually impulse buys that I could do without, but all those girly goodies, too much temptation

£82 in Boots :eek: :eek: :eek: I'm still shocked LOL

Not as shocked as I was;)

However if you spend £40 on just you it's not too bad as I bought toiletries for me & for my daughter for the next few months (lots of Umberto hairstuff on 3 for 2 for her) Sanctury minis for my travel bag & Elnett hairspray x 4 cos I got 10% off and we will use them in the next few months. (She sneaks in to my room and swipes mine so I got her some for herself) Plus the hairdryer which was £14, she needed a dual voltage dryer, and Sunscreen £9 with Aftersun (Free) for her holiday next week.

:money:I saved £19.09 according to my till receipt so it could have been worse! I also realise that if I hadn't gone to Boots it could have been better:rotfl:
