Bring on November

Thanks

Im declaring £250.06 for October which is a full £100 under my budget. How Ive done this I don't know but somehow or other Ive managed to cut back quite a lot and freezer and cupboards quite full.
Just been away with dd14 and even if I added my meal out and the takeaways it would still be £50 under!
Going to drop my budget a bit for November from an average of £75pw to £65 per week so please put me down for £260 for November Mrs M.

Hi all, well done to you all for your great spends, keeping so well under budget.....
I;m unfortunately over budget by £20, making it £270 for this month. I'm trying my best but would love to know any further tips to make it even lower. If you have any ideas......:T
Please keep us at £250 still though, cheers and see you in November......

I have to declare a dismal £267/£200 for October. Partly due to exam time comfort eating for me and convalescent eating for Hubbles but still disappointing after September's success.:rolleyes:
