Evening everyone

NSD from my misc budget as my friend cancelled tea as she was ill. So my big spend isn't happening, although really going to try and keep as much to one side as poss as i'll need it again when we do go out in a few weeks. And defeats the object to spend it now and then have to find it again.

Off to see what I have in the cupboards for tea after resisting chippy tea.

Hope everyone is well.

Anyone heard from/ seen rising there's been no sign on this challenge since early last week.

Evening everyone. :wave:

bt1 & flyinggiraffe - just think at least you had the money saved or at least something saved towards it. If you're anything like me pre MSE you wouldn't have had anything saved.

Hope everyone has had a good start to the week.

Aye, that is true. I'm a bit less grumpy about the cost thinking of it that way.

Another NSD here so still only £5.99 spends this week.

Still having a rough week lol

Own £1.67 of my £25 budget! Thats all i have left from it. I am going to have to chip into my savings too early this week, i blame my son for turning 5! lol

Im just going to do an update at the end of friday about how bad my week was! Its not good! 3 weeks on this challenge and 3 red weeks

I have put something on Ebay which i really wanted to keep, but in reality its a WANT not a NEED and the cash could really come in handy this week.

Hope you have all had a fab day.

Hi all!

NSD for me yesterday. In fact I made £15 although I do have plans for most of that.

Today was a spend day. I spent £5.74 on some velcro for a project - unfortunately the bulk of that was postage but I really wanted brown and couldn't get it in town when I searched at the weekend.

So I'm at £10.85/£15 (+£15 currently!)

Well i still have £1.67 of my budget left today, tomorrow i need to spend £10 though so i know 100% will be a red week!

My 86 yr old Grandma has become really poorly and im so tempted to drive the £70 worth of petrol drive and 8 hours worth of driving to see her as i feel it may be my last chance. Why do these big chunk of money things happen when you have just used all your spare cash into getting rid of 1 debt! Wishing now i hadn't bothered paying Next off early

Hope you all have a good day. x
