  • Have fun at the zoo F_F. animal0072.gif I hope you see lots of penguins on parade.

    I think we are going to have a cheap day by having a wander around the park then dropping nephew to the airport at about 2pm. Then I should go to the library but I don't really want to but know I should :rolleyes:

    Happy low / no spending day budgeteers.

    Next week I'll go for £20 (another night out coming up on Friday).

    The £20 will once again include everything. I've still plenty of food and there's petrol in the car, so I should be ok.

  • Hello again - it's very motivating to see my name in green !

    I am doing the challenge Monday through to Thursday this week. Friday is payday, I have the day off & I have done a small amount of overtime, so have given myself half my overtime payment to spend on a (very small !) shopping spree & lunch with my mum on Friday - this will be around £70, but am not including it as I've been budgeting & planning for it for a month.

    So my target to the end of Thursday is £6.00

    Spend day for me today - £5.90 on dinner for me and t'other half from the chippie. We didn't make it to the zoo, as a lazy Sunday seemed like more fun, but will go this coming week sometime instead.

    I've also been to the movies today but used my cinema card and [strike]smuggled[/strike] took my own sweets so no spend there :D

    NSD for me. (I haven't actually got further than the garden today...) It does mean that I've reached my NSD target for this month, but I'd quite like my name in purple VERY soon... Will keep working on it! :D
