Minimal/no spend week (£0for me) 18 May!

Toonie

Well...this morning we need to stock up on some frozen peas and fruit juice as we've drunk loads over the weekend. Otherwise no food spends today. I have tube and bus fares but they get reimbursed by my employer, so that's no problem. Yesterday the closest I got to going out was standing on the balcony, so that was a no spend day as well.

We did have a lovely roast beef dinner after my parents gave me a small piece of beef, which is the first roast me and bf have had in our new flat. I didn't get any baking done though, as it was just so hot yesterday, so may do something quick this morning before going to work.

Evening all! Well, I've now made it through two days with no spend, struggled a bit at work as I kept getting hungry but managed to fend it off with a cup-a-soup I found in my drawer and a bit of cake someone had brought in (not fantastic for the diet mind you!) - must remember to take more things in to snack on tomorrow. Realised I'd arranged to go to the cinema on Weds but might try and get out of that as not really bothered about it to be honest!

Oh and have just 'acquired' a new pair of shorts by taking up some old jeans, been meaning to do it for ages.. pah, who needs shops!

Have to spend tomorrow as i need more compost :eek: they must think im opening a market garden :rotfl: but it will pay me back when i start eating all those veggies :j -i might also have to pick up a few fruit cane/bushes..only €1.99 each though ..have the 1st flowers on some beans allready :T

I will also need some more salad stuff tomorrow and a top up of fruit..have quite a bit left but as im averaging 15 portions of fruit n veg to myself a day..it won't last long :rotfl:

Good Morning all.
I have found the colour button as you can guess.
I have spent £2.58 so far today and as i said yesterday i need to pop into town and also Morrisons for compost.
Iam suppose to pay £16.50 for DD2 nursery today as thats when she goes nursery (but i dont pay till thursdays lol) but that is not coming out of the £30 target i have set myself.
I have £21.48 left and we are only on day 2, but call that £21 as i will put the 42p in my sealed pot. And proberly more change to add to sealed pot when i get home from town and Morrisons.

Where has everyone gone off this thread?? Its getting lonely and in need of some hugs me thinks

I will update you all later on my spends..then i should not need anymore food for rest of week
