£20 on a wedding present and 79p on fruit and soup for lunch.

I hate weddings. Three this year, always cost a fortune - hen dos, travel, hotels, pressies, drinks. And what do I get out of it? Nothing! That's what. Humph.

I spent £3.50 on lunch today but somehow i managed to lose my sandwiches between the fridge and work

And I decided I deserved a Pret after I had to sit through my boss (at the desk behind me) having a argument with The Accountant, The Director, The Conferences Team and two customers - and not even at the same time, it was well dragged out over an entire day! - talk about thumping headaches. I am just looking forward to next Thursday which will be my last day! woo woo!!

aaaanyway, will be good tommorow :A (promise)

Mango

I succumbed to a Prets today as well and spent £2.50 - got squished very badly on the tube this morning and my homemade sarnies didn't look too appealing when I got to work!

Right am off home! :j

roversbabe

£40 on pressies :eek: - thats my sister's birthday, my mums birthday, the rest of SIL's xmas pressie and my nephews birthday pressie so not too bad - OH gave me £20 towards that tho.

95p on breakfast (the big coffee was back today, needed the caffiene as I didn't sleep so well last night) and £3 on lunch (sausages & mash, my absolute favourite - there was no way I was taking my own lunch today)

£1 on parking and £3 on xmas cards - they were on BOGOF so thats the cards sorted. I've already got the bits to make the special ones.

TOTAL £47.95 (-£20 from OH)
