    Already spent a chunk of this week's budget- £5.99 on new secateurs (sp) (can't think of another budget to buy them from!) and £1.99 on green garden sacks.

    Happy low spends all.

    Oooh can I join this please. I really need to limit my weekly spending, seeing as I go the first week after payday as spending all my available money, and then not having any the rest of the month. This would really help me, as well as the NSD's that I am keeping track of.

    pointypenquin can you put me down for £10.00 from 6th July instead please :) Mainly because I didn't know this thread existed until I found it this morning :D I hope to keep to this each week if possible. Although I do have a weekend where we are going to the county show so I know that I will be well over the limit then, maybe if I made that a different limit it wouldn't be so bad..lol

    Morning All,

    Can I please set a target of €5 this week, mostly because I have very little money left for the month :(

    And, NSD day yesterday. So far today, €0.70.

    I must work harder at this!

    Have a good day all! :)

    Welcome moneytree! Good luck! Just checking back on here each day should keep you focused.

    For me now, if I am considering buying something, I ask myself again and again, do I NEED this, as I know I will be keeping track of it all and putting it on here! Keeps me focused. :)

    I have spent €1.89 on soup and a roll at lunch. Getting bread on the way home tonight for sandwiches. Ran out yesterday and was too lazy to go out! Shame on me!

    Afternoon everyone, we went to our meeting, seemed very positive, will wait and see what they say when we submit plans in a few weeks. Spent £3.40 on bus fare. Also had lunch out but this is going to come out of grocery challenge money.
