Not
too bad today either - prescription from the chemist £6.65
and
bought tea from McDonalds as too tired to make anything after last
night's night out £6.36. Spoiled unfortunately by the sporg
having two birthday parties to go to - one form school a week on
Saturday and one from down the street this Saturday. Had to buy a
pressie online from an ebay store £17.73, not sure if it'll
come
in time for this weekend's party so may have to do as pressie for the
second party.

Not too bad a day today - only spent £19.67 at the
supermarket,
but unfortunately had to sub the missus a tenner as she was skint.

Today was a really bad
day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It started
badly with my daughter wanting some money so she could buy some books
at the school bookfair, so, having no change, I gave her a
tenner
and said I wanted change. (She came back with 3 books and 2 pence
change!)
Next,
as part of the missus' 40th birthday pressie, I got us tickets to go
and see the Eagles at the MEN Arena. Now, I wouldn't normally have gone
to this, but the missus is a big fan and it was her 40th, but this is
down as their farewell (again!) tour so they put their prices for the
tickets up from £40 last time they played to a staggering
£75, plus booking fee = £80!!!!!!!!!!! That's
£80
EACH, by the way!!!!!
Anyway, we were late setting off and it was absolutely chucking it down
with rain, so instead of getting the bus into town as we'd planned, we
avoided getting drenched and being late by getting a taxi. Then we went
for some tea out at The Grinch ( we saved money here by going during
happy hour and getting half price pizza and half price house wine - a
moneysaving result for once!!!!!!!!!
Then we went to the Hard Rock Cafe to meet a friend who was coming to
the concert with us. Unfortunately he was late, so we ended up having 2
drinks instead of one. Then onto the concert and more drinks. Then
after the concert, back to the Hard Rock Cafe and a few more beers!
Luckily, our friend was driving, so we only had to buy him one Coke and
he got free refills - and he gave us a lift home which saved on the
taxi fare - so at least we felt as if we were moneysaving even if we
were really spending money we didn't have!!!
Then after that we had to get a taxi home for my dad who babysat the
sprog for us!
Total spend for today an earth shattering
£108!!!!!!!!!!!!

Only
one spend today, but unfortunately it was £57.91 at the
supermarket, which is a big spend and as I was already
£128.26
overbudget for the month, it's yet another disaster for this
month!!!!!!!!! I'm now £186.17 overbudget for the
month and
I don't get paid till next Tuesday!!!!!!!!!
