Hello all.

Could i join please MRS M?
Due to a couple of unfortunate occurances this we are really cutting back this year so need to save where we can! Any help or advice much appreciated!

We are a family of 6 (2 adults 4 children, 1 is a baby) plus our Shih Tzu puppy!)

I have never budgeted at all but would like to start at £350 this month then amend next month when i get more of a understanding of what we actually spend. Plus have lots left over from Christmas.

£350 budget until Jan 23rd (payday) This will include all food, pet food, toilteries (nappys) and cleaning items.

Thank you and am really looking forward to this new challenge and era in my life!

Hello :wave:

Just creeping back out of the woodwork after falling off the wagon in Aug. I would like to rejoin with a £250 budget please. It runs to the 24th from the 25th of each month and for 2 adults, 3 kids and 2 cats. Includes all food, cleaning, househood and eating out spends. Will be very tight but budget demands.

Thanks

...I've already spent £42 today in Asda - just getting 'some bits' :eek:

BUT - there were a load of BOGOFS and I made the most of them - some fresh veg as well that will be used in SC etc and then get added to the casserole starter in the freezer

Diod a meal plan though last night that should see me through to the end of the month with most of the stuff coming out of the storecupboard and freezer so I'm hoping it will just be milk etc now that I need.
