    Hellooooo.

    What a weekend. I have spent SOOOOOO much money. The rest of my Aug "me money", Septembers "me money" (which since im going on holiday for 2 of the weeks, I shoulve been able to save most of this), and some birthday money. OOooops!! I did have a good time, but I hate spending so much on nothing.

    Today im being taken out by work for lunch, (free) and tonight getting my legs waxed (which my housemates kindly paid for - what a nice birthday pressie, obviously they were trying to tell me something!! hehe!!), so shouldnt spend any ££££. Then I have Wed & Thursday before I go away, and am hoping to spend as little as possible.

    I might even come back with some money from my hol - who knows!!

  • Not aiming to spend anything today - getting a free drink at lunch today from one of my managers!

    Had an awful August moneywise, so spent some time last night sorting out my budget for the next two months so I don't have the same trouble next month.

    Payday tomorrow though :j :j :j

    Hi
    Bought some hedge trimmers. Went to B7 Q to get the £9.99 ones but of course they were all gone. They had some for £17.99 which were the cheapest so I got those.
    Also did my online tesco shop last night, though its not delivered ( and so not debited) until tomorrow.

    Of course my OH seems to be spending money like it grows on trees!
  • £1.05 on stamps. So exciting. Not.

    Am very smug as I haven't spent a single penny today!
    I did a bootsale yesterday and earned £50+ and while I was there I bought a beautiful oak chair for £5. I have sanded it down with my (bought in a sale for knock down price) orbital sander and wax polished it (didn't even have to change the upholstery as it is in perfect nick) and am totally thrilled with it! I am having a very good day :D (sorry to say not every day is as good, money wise, as this ;) )
