Pap/Moozie's What have/will you spend today Tuesday 11th March?

Good Morning all :D
Just thought I'd start the thread as need something to occupy myself before going to my interview!!! Very nervous:eek:

Also very anxious about the amount in my ISA I'm cashing in, which is supposed to hopefully be enough to clear my cards, I posted on the investments board, & was told to be prepared for a sharp intake of breath when I see the amount_pale_

Other than that feel great:rotfl:

Should be a NSD for me
Comping again - wins so far : 2 V festival tix, 2 NFL tix, 6 bottles of wine, personalised hand soap, Aussie miracle conditioner :beer:

    Going to be a NSD as it is pouring with rain and I feel too lousy to go out.
    I can cook and sew, make flowers grow.

    good morning all

    well am off to bank shortly to sort out new loan then I will get my PPI refunded as they admitted misselling.
    they want me to take out a new loan but I am going in with all the paperwork to prove that they can just remove the PPI and adjust my repayments - we will see how comes out on top!!!

    should be a no spend day for me - parking is free in our town.

    personal spends weekly total

    £5.20/£25

    wish me luck!

    Morning all :j

    Yesterday I managed a late night extra spend of £9.56 on a book by one of my fave authors. To be fair, I searched for the cheapest copy I could find.

    Today should be a low spend of 45p on my fave chocolate :D Err, not quite . Felt peckish after my home-made lunch so bought a sausage roll for £1.80 then remembered why I don't eat sausage rolls more often (the taste) :rolleyes:.
