To order takeaway later when I can't afford it?

[NettoSuperstar]

It's fecking freezing here, snowing, and miserable, I've had a shite week and I want food delivered.
So am I?

Haha too late! Enjoy. I just ate a Pizza Hut calzone, potato skins and have a rocky road cake filthy looking thing for later cost the same as your meal for you and dd and will be none left tomorrow

Netto... I know how you feel. We're opting for takeaway too which we really shouldn't be spending money on as i've had a loooong annoying day (ds1's friends mother turned up unannounced for a visit and she's a lingerer, was here for over 4 hours!) and I simply do not feel like cooking.

YABU. You need to live within your means.

Within my means is a miserable/boring existence, I do it most of the time.

Tonight I want not to.
I want to eat my delivered food whilst watching Paddy McGuinness, and tomorrow, eat the leftovers whilst watching CDWM marathon.

So there.

Let the chicken see the chilli

Love a bit of Paddy

YANBU because it sounds like you are able to cut back where necessary. Beans, tomatoes, cheese, tuna or any combination with toast or baked potatoes for a while would make up for it. I've been there and it isn't a bad diet. DH missed meat but, meh - needs must.

Excellent point about the bus fare. I was going to say factor in the petrol or risk / cost of wrecking your car in the snow but that's moot now.

If you have your mind made up do it. If you weren't going to listen to any replies I fail to see why you'd post in the first place.

Oh I'm a fab cook, and I serve up great meals on a budget, I really love cooking, but just sometimes I want it delivered to me.

Also, Paddy is mine
I love him a wee bit more than is acceptable!

And yes, it's snowy, in a shit slushy, horrid way, and it's dull, and dark, and freezing.

We have our jamas on, duvets down and are awaiting food

OP is reading replies.

Perhaps it's just nice to engage with people?

AIBU might not be the best platform true, but sometimes it's good to have any sort of back-up.

Enjoy your food OP.

Sorry for being a bit shitty OP, enjoy your food

Apology accepted.
You are right, I was just looking to engage, and this is the easiest place to do it.

You may say, 'I told you so', when I am moaning about feeling sick later

Please tell me it was worth it? Have been weirdly wondering if you've had a crap meal

Or if you are going to be hungry again in half an hour

But you can afford it if you have the money to give the delivery man so enjoy.

It was delicious, worth every penny.
I've just had some chicken and rice, with curry sauce and scooped up on naan.
DD has had shish, and naan and chips.
They sent the chips free, as they know DD likes chips, also some garlic sauce!
The delivery guy got homemade cake.

There is so much food we could eat for a week, but we'll not, just today and tomorrow will do us.

Paddy knows what you're up to Netto , he said 'let the sweet see the sour'

argh, am sitting here hungover and could murder an indian takeaway. mmm, its nearly 10pm should I do it?!

I love Paddy, I love him so much

Hope your landlord realises it could take two months to sort your rent and they pay in arrears not in advance.

Hope you made the right decision about your take away. Sometimes it is nice to be able to just splash out.

Oh he does.
I have explained it all, in exact detail.
He's said that it's OK.
I've lived here for 10 years, and have looked after the house.

nah
