    Good Morning kizzy, and everybody :hello: :hello: :hello:

    Great news on the ISA, kkw :T :T . I hope that you have enough for a bit of a 'personal' treat as well as paying off a good chunk of your debt.

    Anyway - I didn't get my 'Chinese' last night, as I was called in to work. :eek: Still it was better to earn £30.00 than to spend it.

    Am working tonight and tomorrow, so it looks as if my 'Chinese' will be put on hold. May spend 95p on a 2 x 200 gram pack of Asda Milk Chocolate, this afternoon - as compensation. :rolleyes2 :smiley: :rolleyes2

    I am going to the Optician (Boots) for an eye-test today, but have a 'Free eye test' voucher - just hope I don't need new glasses.

    Other than that, we will be doing our budgeted weekly shopping this afternoon - boring, I know, but has to be done. :rolleyes:

    Have a great day everyone. :j

    Congratulations kizzykizzywizzy! Just seen your sig - you'll be debt-free in no time!

    Anyway, today unfortunately I won't have an NSD - need to put petrol in OH's car as he isn't working at the moment. We are going to babysit for his sister - which means we'll be using her electricity for the night and she is cooking us dinner and has bought me a bottle of lambrini as a thank you! Will aim to put no more than £15 in the car. No other spends.

    Total aimed for: £15.

    :rotfl:done that plenty of times :rotfl:
  • Hi all,

    not done too bad today, saturday is usually the day that all my good work for the week goes to pot!

    I did find a pair of black bootcut jeans in a shop that's closing down, bought them for £1, and they threw in toy 'cooking set' for my kids for nothing. Bought ingredients for a Chicken Korma instead of buying a takeaway tonight, and took chicken out of the freezer to use. Also hired a DVD from the library, 2 nights for £2.25 which is half the price of blockbusters and we get to keep it an extra night. :T

    Hubby is out on the town tonight, but as he's usually anybody's after just 2 pints I'm not too worried ;)

    Have a great weekend.

    I love duck too, PaP - but prefer it 'crisp roasted' with a plum or gooseberry sauce, so we tend to buy a whole duck - when they are reduced - and cook it on 'special occasions'.

    Anyway - I've had my optician's appointment - everything fine - they have 'suggested' slightly stronger glasses, but have assured me that it won't make any difference if I don't buy new glasses this year. Going to think about it - as they are about £75.00 (although you do get the second pair free).

    So far - total spend has been 30p on parking and 90p on a hot pasty for lunch. :D

    Just getting ready to go to do budgetted weekly shop - then straight to work. :eek:
