Hiya
Better late then never! Just finished totting up for Jan and my total is £114 which I am really pleased with. Not quite the £5 per day but still a massive help towards my overspend on groceries - don't know what happened there! Came in under budget on fuel to so that helped too.
Aiming for £5 per day again in Feb
