focus888

£1.94 on vitamins, might be a small shop later tonight. but hopefully not that much

pointy ive noticed bringing my lunches has helped me so much with my not spending. You never notice the £3 here and there but it adds up to alot darn those tasty sandwich shops. lol

Hey all

Another NSD for me, have been running a course today at work and we get free meals, so that's all good.

Being cooked for tonight at a friends so that's good too.

Day off tomorrow, uh oh, gonna have to stay away from the shops!! somehow!

Oh dear pp, well we all need a splurge every now and then, as long as you enjoyed it, nothing worse than spending money and not enjoying the end lt, feels such a waste.

Hope everyone is well.

Hello All
I have a confession to make. I have not been including my newspapers in my spending budgets at all:o, It never crossed my mind to do so, don't ask me why. So from this week forth I shall be including papers as well (gulp).:o
PP I am glad you enjoyed the film wolverine as I want to see it over the weekend. I also saw a very good review for your swiss horror film in my newspaper, however I am a big chicken so just the music alone gets me going.
The generic hay fever tablets are wonderful

See you all friday.

£2 on a cheapo vest on Tuesday and £1.24 today on crisps & jaffa cakes whilst 'on the road'. So total for me so far is £3.24.
Going to hunt in the cupboards for something to make for tomorrows lunch! - must do some grocery shopping soon, haven't managed to get to supermarket for almost 2 weeks, only thing I've run out of desperatley so far is catfood and I 'borrowed' a pack from my folks.

Hello Pointy and everyone else

I started joining this challenge in January but then had my baby and it all went a bit Pete Tong money challenges wise!!
I am a bit more on track now he is 4 months old so will hopefully rejoin the challenge next week, really need to as I will only be receiving SMP from next week:eek:
Well done everyone x x

Morning all!

I had a Weekly Spend NSD yesterday as I only spent budgeted for money on lunch out with colleagues to celebrate a birthday.

I'm aiming for a NSD today as well as I am off work and won't have to go out anywhere. Hopefully.

Hey pipsmum! How is Baby Pip? Are you calling him by his real name yet? :rotfl:

Morning all just a fleeting hello to wish to you all a happy Friday.

I will update you on the rest of my terrible week later on.

I would like to declare £8.12 for this week. I will go for £10again next week. Note how my spends are getting closer to the target spend!!
I have been putting whatever I've got left over into a pot and managed to get just over £40 in two months - which I spent on a dress and skirt from the House of Fraser sale (just £23.40 for both of them- bargain!!) and a new handbag. So my leftovers for the next two months will be to pay for a manicure and pedicure the day before I go on holiday. Need to get my spending back down or this won't happen.

This week I bought:

Book for holiday (The Return) £3.96
Woman/Womans Own £1.80
Euromillions syndicate £1.50 (we actually won £5.40 between 16 of us)
Olay face wash 86p (had £5 off voucher from Boots)

Thank you pointypenguin for keeping me on the straight and narrow (just!) :T
