Am sure I have enough things to eat in the fridge and cupboard for a week or so. Smile

Uniform for Tuesday is sorted.

Petrol in the car.

So, no spending for 1 week.

Am allowed to buy milk.

Anyone want to join me? GrinGrin

Will give it a go. My coffee addiction might derail it though...

Ruprekt · 20/04/2014 23:53

Eddie....have you got a Waitrose near you?

Free coffee every day!

I had mine today! However, I feel bad if I don't buy something when I claim it.

Ruprekt · 21/04/2014 00:18

No, do not feel bad.

They are luring you in!

My kids dont go back to school unti the week after next,they have been off a week already, no spend unlikely here Sad

We did an Asda shop based on meal plans for the week, so for that I'm ok.

Dd1 needs new school trousers (why do teenagers keep on growing??).

But apart from that (I've paid monthly for violin/piano lessons) I should be able to spend £0 this week!

I'll see if I can get DP on board. He likes to buy heaps of bread, but I have a bread machine and would prefer to make our own.

Bought a coffee, boo.... I'm working today and the office is dead, I couldn't help myself (and free Waitrose coffee would have involved a 3 mile round trip!)

IHaveAFifthSense · 21/04/2014 15:11

I'll join tomorrow - once our weekly shop has been done!

Ruprekt · 21/04/2014 15:45

Well I had to send dh out to buy milk and a PE bag for DS1.

I told him I could not go as i was on a no spend week.Smile
