Chocolate and icecream

Chocolate and Icecream.
Treats.
(that was our table @ halloween, courtesy of someone else paying for the chocolate)
We all like treats. I like chocolate. I like it every few days, so a £1 pack of 4 lasts me a week. DS has a piece a day as does OH. That means they cost nearly £4 a week. And then theres the icecream lollies OH likes. There goes another 1 a day.
I know we all need treats. But this is getting expensive. All the double deckers have gone from last week, as have the icecreams. Which means we'll go into asda again this week and I'll feel I have to buy treats.
i pay for all the groceries, I do all the cooking.
I didn't make cake or pie therefor I had a jam sarny as something sweet at dinnertime and nothing at teatime.
I can do without.
I don't feel I can ask everyone else to do the same.
i wish I didn't have such a problem talking about money.
Today we bought some paint. I say we as I paid £40 of the £60 cost as OH didn't have enough. Watch this space as he said I'll give you the money back.
For the next few weeks I'm gonna try and not spend anything I really don't need.
I wanna fill the tin up to £1000by my birthday in april.
There's £630 in there now, but I have 3 family birthdays between now and then.
I shall try.
