Good morning lovely DFWs :)

Foggy and wet down here, definitely a duvet day! ;)

Was good and didn't spend anything yesterday and planning to do the same today. If anyone else wants to be in the Sun to Fri challenge, just pledge your budget and off we go! :)

Have a lovely day and keep it low!

Moozie x

PS Toe feels like new and I am having the bandage removed this afternoon :D

    Hi Moozie so the chiropractor sessions went well then? Glad it's feeling better.

    Hoping for a low-spend day, will need to go out later to buy something for a pot-luck supper at a friend of mine whose hubby is being posted so they are moving away. I do such a frugel shop now tthere are no 'goodies' apart from tesco value crisps and biscuits. I don't want to look that cheap:o

    What's the sunday to friday challenge? I must have missed that somewhere!:confused:

    Thank you :)

    Hope the shopping goes well and it doesn't give you the taste for 'goodies' ;)

    The challenge is where a bunch of us set a budget on how much we are happy to spend between Sun to Fri. This is for not budgeted stuff, just spending money. Then on Sunday we usually update on how we did and set the next weeks budget/target :)

    Morning everyone

    Thought I'd over spent last week, but my budget was £25 and I only spent £24.38! :)

    I should be able to manage this week on £12. I'm working this weekend too for a friend, so should make some extra money too :D

    Oh, and today should be a NSD

    I'd be grateful if you could all cross your fingers for my DH who has a job interview this afternoon
    Bank loan - [STRIKE]£9949.52 [/STRIKE]/ £8705.83 * Loan from DH - [STRIKE]£600[/STRIKE]/ £350 * Overdraft - [STRIKE]£0[/STRIKE] £648.47
    Total debt at LBM (09 2006) - £10,549.52 Total debt on 14 Mar 2007 - £9704.30 - 8.1% Paid off
    This week's budget - £20 Spend so far - £32.50
    March's target - keep overdraft below £600 - failed :(
    Proud to be dealing with my debts

    I'll join in with £40. I hope everyone doesn't mind. I'm not in debt but I need to save for a wedding in 18 months time and it's proving to be difficult. So what are the rules of this? If I need to get food shopping does it come out of this or is it considered to be already budgeted for?

    Welcome black-saturn :) Food shopping is considered as one of the things that is budgeted for but the rules are really up to you. Personally, I don't include bills, debts repayments or food shopping.

    Miss-sixty, fingers firmly crossed for your OH :)
