Usually there will be a link to the following months thread but Pink (who usually takes care of us) has been busy this time so someone else did it -and we don't have the same access to the system...Even if you don't see the link -keep an eye out around the 28th at the very top of the "old style board" as the current month is "stuck" to the top of it

That's me declaring for January with a saving of £8.12 which will go in Mombe the holiday pig.Okay I'm hightailing it over to the February challenge I think I may have some reading to catch up on.

I am really really pleased with myself this month.

I have clocked in £8.85 under.

My grand total spend for January has been £175.60

I don't have to buy anything till February now.

I am so chuffed.

This is my first month of coming under. I was beginning to think of giving myself a bit more. So, to all those of you who keep trying but just going over your budget.... keep at it.... don't give up... it will come.

My eating a little less to try and lose the Christmassy fleshy bits may have helped too.

Hi Everyone.

Not done too bad this month but still overspent by 7.60 up to now. Hopefully will not have to spend anything until Sunday.

Mrs Mac. Can you put me down for £120.00 for Feb.

Thanks
