Well done everyone! Sounds like we're all having pretty good weeksMr Delivery has promised me a NSD on Saturday as he knows how skint I am
Have a great rest of the week everyone
Our greatest weakness lies in giving up; always try just one more time0 -
No spend for me today! I'm going to a jewellery party tomorrow night, after DS school fair lol so there's a possibility of spending a little bit! Ought to keep within my £30 though no probs.

Evening Budgeteers!
I cannot believe that I have gone a whole working week and only spent £2.50 - so pleased!!
Think I am particularly proud of not being tempted by additional spends while waiting for my train at Euston last night...
Anyway, good to hear so many are on track too
I've still got 2 more days to go... so will be declaring whether I spend anything that I've not budgeted for by Sunday.
Enjoy the weekend!Proud to be dealing with my debt0 -
Booo - I spent £12.46 this week so 46p over - grrrr. No excuses really.
Next week I'd best go for a little more as its payday so I'm going for £22 please.
Well done to all, well done to the greenies for making it- especially anyone who is new this week and came out green. Never mind fellow reds - I know I spent less than I would have done without the weekly spend challenge.
Have a good weekend everyoneA smile enriches those who receive without making poorer those who giveor "It costs nowt to be nice"0
