I've not spent any of my non-essential budget yet!
I had £17 cash in my purse at the beginning of the week, and I still have over £5 left! Unbelieveable.
To be honest, I've not really been anywhere (except Waitrose) to spend. (I know... but Waitrose is like my corner shop... I can walk Still need to buy my ink cartridge, but might ask OH to pick one up on his way home from work.
Pub tomorrow night - that's going to be about £10, as I know it's my turn to buy a round. (Though there's a meeting I may need to go to instead...)
Well done everyone, keep it up!Natwest CC - [STRIKE]£2545[/STRIKE] now £0 :j
Overdraft - £2668 :eek:- to be cleared by February 2010
Wedding - 11 September 20100 -
Not a penny spent YET!!!!!! Unfortunately I do need a couple of bits from Sainsbugs but will go after work (about 8pm) and will hopefully find some stuff reduced! I only set myself a budget this week of £5 so its going to be pushing it but I will try!

Have sent t'other half to the Post Office with the last £5 note in my purse to post my Amazon parcels, and I only have another £1 in my purse :eek: We are also going to need to get bread tomorrow and milk today (I'm hoping he pays for the milk :rotfl: )
I am hopeful I will be within the £20 budget by the end of Friday *crosses fingers*
I am going to the movies tonight, but using my free Cineworld pass (Best birthday present ever!) and taking my sweeties with me covertly in my handbag. Mwahahahaha - they shall not thwart me0 -
I have failed miserably on my first time at this challenge but am going to use this week as a marker to what I normally spend and then try to spend less next week.MAY NSD's
