Hello Sazzledazzle I have added you to the first post for this week.
F_F sounds like you have the Monday blues, me too I had to be in 30 mins early today so my Monday is 30 mins longer which is just not what I need especially as I will be in the dreaded library until 9pm trying to get essay 1 of 2 finished.
mrssainted well done on the NSDs I need to start racking up some of them:rolleyes:
For me so far today: bus pass £9.25 but budgeted under transport, 99p for coffee at lunch and think I might get a caramac on the way back to the office so 55p. So total so far is £1.54.
Anyway enjoy the rest of your Monday budgeteers.Weekly Spend Challenge: £0/£30

85p for an envelope and £1.63 for 2nd class postage brings the total spend so far to £13.23. £2.48 worth of shopping bought from Sainsburys but that was on a giftcard so it doesn't count towards the total. That leaves £2.52 on the giftcard for next week.

Yesterday I was really good but that was due to a friend bringing in a cake made of sweets, we ate so much we felt sick. Went and did a tiny bit of food shopping which came out of grocery budget, so no NSD but almost. Brought lunch today and paid for my bonus ball so that £3.90 so far this week.MAY NSD's
