Last weeks thread ~ http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=614867Good 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!!!
Moozie x
welcome all... I hope you have had a great week and kept it low... and are you ready to be turned red/green? Everyone can join, just post a target in keeping with you/your debts/your spends, don’t worry about everyone else’s budgets. Then each day post on the daily spends thread and add them all up ready to post the following Saturday. The challenge runs from Sunday to the Friday... everyone welcome... please dont worry if you have gone over budget and will be turned red it happens... to me more than anyone else.

Hi ya'll
Only ever challenged myself before but want to do this please.
I have a works crimbo do tonight, but I'm working 'til about 9

so no taxi expense and it's my boyfriend who is taking
me....he also works in our team, so will be there too,
therefore I know he will be paying for most of my drinkie poo's.;)
Have my birthday on thurdsay and going to a show at the NEC on the evening,
(paid for by my BF, bless him), so don't think I'll be forking out there!:T
Now let me see.....put me down for a tenner. Surely I can cope with that?!:DLiving a frugal retirement without treading on the planet :T

Oh well, back on track, week before payday and I've got about £35 left in my purse, do need to get some food out of that but not much.. have Christmas do on Friday but that's all paid for apart from drinks on the day, so I'll say £30 as my target for the week.

Not sure why I missed last week's but this week... I'm skipping as it's my Xmas nights out week. I promise not to go too mad though!No longer using this account for new posts from 20130

never done this before but having posted this week on the daily spends thread, have realised that I spend so much more than i realise and its no wonder i am in debt.
I am going to have quite a high total for my first week because of it being xmas and also i know of some stuff which is heading out my pocket so am going to say £40. (after new year it will be down to £5!!)
