Took the kids to see Santa today. SG took to him in the end but J slept through it all. Cost: 1.50
Before our visit to see Santa, we stopped in at Greggs for two mochas, a flavoured water and a sausage roll for SG. Cost: 5.90
We also went to Poundland where I spent £5.05.
My cousin and her kids came to visit when we came home. We exchanged gifts for kids and I gave her ten pounds to give her eldest son for Christmas because I forgot to get his gift card in.
DH is away out for a meal for his work's night out.
I was playing about with next month's budget and I included my new, ideal figure of 160 towards CC2. Doing that apparently leaves me 50 over budget. I'll take a more detailed look later but if that's true then I can cut back on shopping or something to make up for the extra payment. I'll also be on the lookout for snowflakes, of course

I wonder if you'd consider including an 'allowance-like' budget line sum for yourself for coffee with mom, juice at the cafe, Gregg's mocha & sausage roll and incidentals like many of us. Mom's here tend to carry a tote with supplies, drinks and snacks for both babies and tots which may not be typical in Scotland.

@ snafu: we usually do carry snacks in a bag, we were in a hurry on the way out and forgot to grab them but we had our bag with nappies, wipes etc. I probably should because it's never budgeted for.
