Argh! Well, my spend is going to be WELL over, as tomorrow I have to book a hotel for a friends wedding. I'm tempted to say this doesn't count, but as I haven't budgeted for it I can't really can I? I was doing so well too!!

Oh dear that is a shame when these things crop up unexpectedly.

Any way I am on £20 so far this week as I started the week with £13 in my purse and I have that left plus I have withdrawn £20. I know all of this has gone on food in one form or another with the exception of small change and a £2 coin that went into piggy banks. Oh well roll on Friday

I made it this week but it was close. Seems as if this thread is very quiet this week. I am off on holiday for the next couple weeks. If anyone wants to keep the thread going in my absence please feel free, else I will pick it up on my return.

Enjoy the next couple of weeks budgeteers.

Whoooo! I actually managed it As my friend decided she wanted to stay an extra night, which I couldn't afford to book for us - so she booked it instead! And I am paying her back another week when it will have been budgeted for! *big happy grin* Feeling very proud of myself!
