How much money have you spent today?

[ClassicStripe]

Just being nosey!
£152 weekly shop in Tesco
£129 DS’s main birthday present
£25 soft play
Was going to stock up on my skincare (been substituting with cheap stuff for a few months) this evening but feel like I might need to hold that off now.

I don't think I've spent anything. Yay. I nearly bought a jigsaw from Amazon but didn't.

£189 on custom Nikes for DS birthday next month.

Oh where from? It's lovely 😍

£95 at Lidl, £43 a Cisco (petrol), £30 breakfast for myself and my friend who copped for our taxi fare last night - we are both visiting friends so out of town over night. Also sent £9.50 to my window cleaners.

Stayed at home today
£15 on tik tok on an under eye serum
£75 argos rebounder and blood sugar strips for monitor

£33 for DW and DD1 to have lunch together (because reasons).

£27 for train ticket to work tomorrow.

I wouldn’t buy that one. The supplier reviews are really bad I’m afraid

Whoa I didn’t spend anything on the 31st! But I paid my taxes on the 30th, and today had a £120 Tesco shop and paid just over £300 to my agents for fees relating to a change in tenants…

wow thats generous

Around £25 for a Toby Carvery as my husband was away and im not cooking a roast for one

but this thread is making me realise that I think I was/am in a financially controlling marriage which broke me. sadly it gave me a psychotic break which means I lost my elite career id worked so hard for

id love to have a window cleaner but my husabnd is mean and refuses

thats a cool present

£104 Tesco
£20 Amazon
£15 evening class
£4,500 new sofa

£50 on petrol, £2.40 on a pack of Parma ham and £125 online for a pair of ankle boots.

Yesterday spent £4 on a newspaper. Although I won't need to buy anything till the end of the week hundreds will go out of my account on council tax, fuel, water, broadband bills etc.

wow - you win I think!

DO oyu mind me asking aobut your sofa? what did you get? I may need a nw one soon if I have to separate from my husabnd.

Did it take oyu long ot decide - my husband would never let me buy anything without researching for about a year

Just a set of dinner napkins from amazon. I forget the price but not much.

do most peopel spend soemthing every day? I could go weeks barely spending a thign although I ahd a very financially controlling husabnd

I wish there was a thread like this when mumsnet started.
It would be interesting to see changes in spending habits

Even more interesting if we were looking at decades ago

ps I spent £0 on Sunday

We dont
We both work from home or are on site and take sandwiches
Most months we do a couple of food shops and that’s it
Our extra curricular stuff eg exercising, art, reading etc cost nothing
So most weeks we spend nothing apart from the usual bills

did If help??

Sunday just over £15 in a cafe with DH.

Monday 99p so far on a kindle book.

Yesterday: £9.95 on a bag of guinea pig pellets.
Didn't leave the house except to take daughter to rugby and pick partner up from the station.

Looks interesting!!

I lived in Spain for a while. Do love a good tapas - will keep it in mind. Thanks!!

Where?

that seems extortionate.
