hi all, welcome to moozies challenge ~ ummm only 2 days late :rotfl: anyways you all know the drill, i shall sort out this op tonight/tommorow have some catching up to do

Good afternoon lovely DFWs

Now for anyone looking in, please feel free to join - the more the merrier! Basically, decide on the amount you want to spend up to from Sunday until the end of the working day on Friday then pledge it here and off we go! The challenge is about incidental spending and not for stuff that should be budgeted elsewhere such as bills, groceries, debt repayment etc but you decide what to include at the end - this is about changing your habits and improving your recording of your spends more than anythng else.

Have a great week everyone and keep it low!!!

Both days were NSD anyway! Isn't it great to be back?

hypno06 · 29 October 2007 at 11:55PM

I spent too much when we were away! Need this thread to keep me on the straight and narrow so will pledge to spend no more money until the weekend with the exception of bread, milk and fruit.....:o

wok_boy · 29 October 2007 at 11:57PM

I've given up on NSDs they're sooo boring

well without mse i went off the rails a little ~ well a lot but my 'off the rails' is prob very mild. I have £10 for the week but i need phone credit, i am not counting sunday and today as teh weekly total thingie because well just beacause :rotfl: but i blame the orrible people who attacked mse...

Miss_Marple_2 · 30 October 2007 at 12:23AM

Hello - I'm so glad we're back !!

Unfortunately I went over budget last week - I spent 11.08

This week, I am aiming for £15.00 as I am paid this week and there's a few bits I've been hanging on to get !

I've already spent £3.24 this week, so I've started off quite badly - but I've included that in my £15, so should be on track for the rest of the week now

Hi all, this is my first week of joining this challenge, I assume I just post here what my budget is right? If I'm wrong can someone gently point me in the right direction!

My budget for the week is £20, that is incidental spending not budgetted essentials like my trainfares to uni etc...

Hope this is the way we do this challenge...

Pap, let me know if I've misunderstood! :rotfl:

postingalwaysposting · 30 October 2007 at 12:32AM

chole, perfect

now post each day on the daily threads... and keep a running total, most put it in their sigs but you dont have to... then next saturday/sunday i will do a thread like this but your name will be in the first post

when you tell me if you spent too much/under then i turn you red/green ~ simple eh... its just the non spending thats hard :rotfl:

chloebelle · 30 October 2007 at 12:35AM

Thanks Pap, will add this challenge to sig and go for it!!

Am really tired, but don't want to log off it case you all disappear again..._pale_

I think I'll have to take the risk...:rotfl:

catlover1_2 · 30 October 2007 at 12:51AM

Hi,

Think I finished at £79.00

Just under :j :j

For this week am going to stay at £80.00 again

xx

nicola1982_2 · 30 October 2007 at 9:00AM

Terrible week for me - I ended up paying for the groceries which I thought OH was doing so my spend was £144!!!

This week I'm pledging £50 as I need to get baby stuff.
