Ok, so today hasn't been the best day in terms of saving the pennies but we had a great time and you sometimes have to put this mortgage free challenge into perspective. My eldest is having his 2 friends over for a sleepover tonight and the idea was to take them Ten Pin Bowling (during hapy hour - of course!) then out for a meal at Bella Italia courtesy of Tesco Deals Vouchers.
All was going well. I booked the lane for 6pm - these lanes usually sell out very quickly, Tesco vouchers converted on-line, and table booked at Bella Italia. All looking great for a fun filled evening. However, by this morning, slap bang in the middle of the postal strike, no Tesco vouchers materialised!! We had to use money that we hadn't accounted for but at the end of the day, there were 6 mouths to feed and we were at a bowling alley - it was never going to be the cheapest, most healthy set up but do you know what, we all loved it!!
Oh well, this was a one off and like I said to begin with, we all had a great time and I know my eldest will treasure the memories for many more years after I've paid the mortgage off
