Weekly Spend Challenge W/C 22nd Feb

sazzledazzle

Managed another NSD yesterday as Grandparents treated me to fish and chips, and wont spend a penny today as have sales meeting and we have it at the pub and they buy us dinner in return for us attending. I should be well under target this week. I love this thread really motivates me and recommended a friend to the site today.

Ok for me I went to the cinema yesterday but no cost due to the wonderful cinema card. I bought sweets and bits to go with my lunch from M&S £6.45 but cheaper than buying at the cinema. I then got the bus home as I have been walking to work this week so no bus pass £1.30

NSD today woohoo.:j

Friday tomorrow and dressdown at work.

:rotfl:at lula for being a scarlet woman

sazzledazzle I what you mean I feel that I think more about what I spend when I know I have to come here and confess all my sins.

Since only taking the no-overdraft card that only has my weekly budget in, for the last month or so I found I am not scared anymore of not having access to loads of cash as I realise I don't need to. All those thoughts about I might need cash in an emergency have not happened and it means I can look at things without the temptation of buying as I simply don't have the means available.

Hope you are all having a good week. Bring on the weekend.:D

Evening all!

Another NSD for me, which is pretty good going as I got paid on Monday I'm just trying to concentrate on saving for t'other halfs birthday and paying off my debts. I should clear my overdraft and credit card in the next 2-3 months if I'm careful, and then I will only have my loan to go. I can't make overpayments, so am going to make an Emergency Fund for paying into which will either be my "Oh sh*t I'm redundant" money or will pay off the loan early :rotfl: The more I do this challenge the more I'm going to be saving :T

On guard budgeteers. No spends for me today.
I've been looking ahead to when I might have a purple week. Definately not next 2 weeks as special event next week and a hol the week after. Going to try for one week after that.

Happy Friday bugeteers.

F_F sounds like it is going to be something fantastic with that amount of cash.

Lula well done:T:T:T I don't think I have the will power to make it a NSW.

Tixy love the smillie he should be our mascot.

Raychee good luck for tonight think non-cheesy thought.

It is going to be a spend day for me as I am going for lunch with some girls from work but should hopefully be a cheap one.
