Ok, I chatted last week and posted my situation. So today i would like to join in the challenge please. I am budgeting for Sundries as this is by biggest problem, I am a big money waster. I am doing monday to sunday, I am going to start with £15 this week, (omg so little for me) and reduce from here. Food has been budgeted for, so its just rubbish, waste and bits and bobs to account for.

Hi everyone

May I rejoin this challenge please, pretty please?

Have had so much going on in the last few months that I have lost my way with money and posting on here.

I have just worked out that i have about £30 for the rest of the month, thankfully the car insurance that is coming out tomorrow is budgetted for!!

Will budget £10 for the week, i havent spent anything today which is something.

I wanna say a big thanks to you guys on this thread...1st October I started my MSE ways, thinking about what i spent, joined this challenge etc etc..

I know its only been a couple of weeks but I cant believe how much money i still have left in my account! Normally I would be pretty skint by now. Its such a great feeling to look at my balance and not worry about what im gonna do to get through the month! So much happier! I have had one or two tiny wobbles but overall its been great.

SO A BIG THANK YOU!!! Looking forward to it carrying on

Good luck everyone for this week xx

A pointy pine sound painful. I have two nephews and I have heard of the night garden but never seen it. My younger nephew favours Dora the explorer.

Oh that is lovely, I am glad you are finding things much better, I always feel in control of my life when I know what money I have left and what it is for.
