I have 50p left in my purse. I get paid on Tuesday. That's all I have to last me till then. Luckily I have made a meal plan and bought what we need for it so that's the food taken care of. I am cycling to work so no bus fares or petrol to worry about. I have my own cup of tea supplies at work so no need to buy from the restaurant (and of COURSE I will be taking my own lunch in tomorrow!).
I don't have anything planned for the weekend except getting washing done & dried in the windy sunshine that is forecast and a home pampering day on Sunday with products I already have. I will literally be scraping the product out of the bottom of the packaging but hey! I won't be buying anything new. Hubby is out all day so I plan to just indulge. I bought some Fairtrade milk chocolate from Aldi on Tuesday night (damn them and their extremely reasonably priced treats!) so I will probably be indulging in some of that whilst lounging on the sofa chatting to my best friend on a free phone call, 'apres' face pack.
So, 50p. Do I need to spend it? Will I need to get any more cash out of the bank? I hope not. Anything I take out, this side of pay day, sends me into the red next month. My budget shows me being in the black my a whopping £2.60 next month if I stick to budget! You gotta laugh!
Anyone got any nice plans for the weekend? Feel free to share...just because I am on a zero budget, doesn't mean everyone is. If you're off to Paris for the weekend...enjoy! :-)
My DH gets paid today and me on Tuesday, so we are ok. The other day, he had £5 and I gave him a shopping list of essentials that used it up. But he came home with flowers for me, as well. When I asked him where the money came from, he said, "Oh I used my debit card" - he knows there's a £100 buffer that we keep in the joint account in case something goes wrong. What could I say? I don't know whether to be cross or revel in my lovely hubby...ok ok I'm revelling!!
