I also only have £4.92 of the food budget left. Which is far better then last month when I nearly went £50 over. We have plenty of food, we will just have to be thrifty.
I am up to 5 No Spend Days. I could make it to double digits this month. Which would be nice, this month has kind of gotten away from me.
It is approaching my birthday and I have already received some of my presents. I have some birthday money to throw at the overdraft meaning along with the March Payday chunk I will throw at it it will nearly be halved in just a few months.
Things are what they are. It is Sunday. I have been out with my boyfriend’s family, I have watched the latest episode of Shop Well For Less, I have books to read, an interview to prep for, later I will make soup and I am watching a Miss Marple Episode.
