    I have been away from this challenge for a while, but can I rejoin please pointy? Sorry for being so naughty!!

    Can I please go for £40 this week. I will be including all cash spending in this.
  • Well I failed last week.

    Managed to spend only £2.50 out of my £5.00 up until last night, when the lure of the pub and a catch up with an old friend proved too much to resist! Spent £8.00 on a bottle of wine, so £10.50 out of £5.00 allocated - £5.50 over budget, whoops.

    I will allow myself another £5.00 this week, as that is literally all I have in my purse until I get paid on friday!

    Morning budgeteers,

    I have updated the first post. Welcome to the newbies, howdy to the regulars. A special mention to F_F nice to see you back mate :j

    It is a lovely rainy Sunday in Glasvegas and I am contemplating going to town as I need to buy a present for my bro-in-law (budgeted under presents:D) and might have a look if there is anything on at the cinema so hopefully no unbudgeted spends.

  • Evening all,

    I spent £0 last week (on unplanned spends):D. So I'm green for last week. For the first time ever I think, I got to pay day with some money left and it's because I've been doing this challenge:j. I love checking in here, and though I don't often get the time to post , you guys all help keep me focused.

    Can I pleadge £10 again please for this week.

    Millie.

    Morning budgeteers,

    Another Monday and I am back to work after being off for 5 days, always a chore :mad:

    Oh well I have my lunch with me and hoping to stay away from spending money as I need to save cash for a night out on Saturday.

    Have a good day.:D

    £40 withdrawn yesterday, £20 left as Mr Fresian has no money :rotfl:

    Lunch is made (Home made soup, om nom) and no planned spends apart from dentists which isn't included in this challenge as I can claim the money back.

    Happy budgeteering people!!
  • Just spent £2.99 on lunch - grrr. Note to self, be more organised tonight/tomorrow morning!

    £2.24 spent on dental treatment :D so have added it on here!

    Also spent £4.49 on a nice notebook in Sainsbury's - the branded one was £1.50 more and I was going to buy a new project book anyway, so technically it's a saving!

    Total spend for the challenge so far is therefore £26.73 out of my £40 budget :eek:
