Skint again!!!

Well, here we are 13 days away from payday and after tranfering £50.00 from my savings I have exactly £60.00 quid left.   Hmmm this is not good....
I am meant to be saving for our holiday in Vegas for our 10th Wedding Anniversary in December 2012, but each month the same happens I transfer money to our savings and then transfer it straight back meaning after a good start on the first month for the next 3 months I had saved erm exactly £30.00.  I am thinking at this rate I will be lucky to have a day trip to Margate.  So where does the money go????
I have a sneaky suspicion it may go on Taxi's, beer, chocolate, and bread!!! 
So I have done some research apparently so the money saving books and websites say, a spending diary is a good place to start, so dear reader I intend to keep a diary. Hmmm this could be bad me fears!!!
Also no take outs (nasty fattening things that make you bulge out of your clothes and make your bank balance dimish rapidly)
There is also a money saving programme starting on Tuesday on Channel 4 that I may review on here, that I will watch in the name of research.
However, there are some things I refuse: reusing teabags, using soap on my face, and living entirely on lentils!!!
Anyway I will let you know how it is going, and yes for those who know me it is now 2 days past my pay day, life stopped me from completing this post!
