    Morning budgeteers,

    I have updated the first post welcome to all the newbies, remember the first week is the hardest. Although I seem to fall off the wagon more than I stay on, must be something do to with my large bum:rotfl:

    ETO glad you are enjoying having OH back it must be wonderful.

    Colleen so update us on the gossip about this new guy.

    Anyway I'm off to body pump today so I can be in pain for the next few days:rolleyes: Maybe going to the cinema later and I have to do some cleaning and tidying but other than that it will be a lazy Sunday.

    That sounds like a busy "lazy" Sunday PP!

    I'm still climbing my mountain of ironing - started yesterday, got stranded and must continue today ;) . Then, if I have any time/energy/inclination I must cut the jungle, er, I mean lawn. I'm using my hayfever as an excuse to avoid it, but it really , really needs doing!

    At least with being busy, I won't have time to spend any money.

    Have a good day budgeteers.

    Well i spent £21.00 this week, had to pay for OH to get a new folder as his college lost his :mad:, parking, screwdrivers for OH.
    Would have a high spend week as i decided to invest in a moon cup whilst i was buying pads , yuk i know but needs much. Anywho got to the till at boots and asked if i had enough points to pay for pads and mooncup and low and behold i did :j. So would have spent my entire budget but ended up saving myself £25 :money:. Oh then we went out yesterday to high force so spent money on parking and entrance fees while we were they.

    Been lovely this weekend.

    Please could you put me down for £10 next week , cheers pointy,
  • Well, I came in at £15 last week so I'm green. :jCould you put me down for £20 next week please?

  • Looking forward to this challenge!

    I've withdrawn £15 cash and emptied my purse of everything else... so I am only carrying that with me this week...


    Good luck everyone!
    Proud to be dealing with my debt

    Stayed in and been gardening all day so starting with a NSD.

    ETO - surely you can think of something free and indoors for you & OH to do having not seen each other for months ;);). Its true that the best things in life are free!!:whistle:

  • Hello! I'm new to this challenge and I'm aiming to spend no more than £12 this week. I had a NSD today and have £2 in my purse and will take £10 from the bank tomorrow. Hope I can do it!

    Good luck everybody, and it's great to meet all of you:rotfl: xx
