Weekly Spend Challenge W/C 15th November

pink_numbers

I spent £5 yesterday. It was my OH's birthday meal yesterday, and I had the 50% off voucher for la tasca. I also saved £15 from last month's grocery budget, so just had to add a £5 for a lovely and very filling meal

Still got £10, no plan to spend them!

A bit of a wasteful day for me today...:mad: bought a bottle of tesco finest irish cream but fiddled my petrol budget so it came out of that....
Spent £2 in poundland on an absolutely vile bag of sweets (serves me right for being greedy) and some sparkly silver/gold pens for christmas cards, £1.60 on a sausage thing for lunch, £1 on parking (although my friend drove so can't complain), £2 in Asda on a chocolate gateaux (again, friend bought a whole roast dinner and cooked it so couldn't complain) and orange juice, 57p (i think) on an ebay parcel but i will get that back when payment clears. All in all a rubbish day, so down to £12.03 for the rest of the week...:o may have to fiddle the grocery budget next to be able to go out Saturday night!

£2.70 on lunch and £1.90 on coffee (Not in my usual office today) and 15p on a fudge. £2.65 on Ebay postage.

Gah. It's not been a good month.

Next month I have nothing but thin air and good intentions...

Happy Friday Budgeteers :j:j:j:j

Yesterday I spent £3 on lunch from the canteen. So I am already red for the week. Also I have nothing for lunch with me so I will be buying it. Oh well back on the wagon next week:D

Already exceed my budget for my first attempt!! But only by £16.14 and approx £6 i know I should have not spent, but was feeling a bit down yesterday and couldn't resist £2 for 4 cans of tuna
I'll be much better next week as will have less distractions and am studying so there will be a few NSDs in there as well!

Have spent £2 today, dress down and bought a left over A2 picture frame for a quid from work- am declaring a green £13 for this week- I'm going out next week, so need to include £10 for that, so I'll budget £20 please

Can I please have a budget next week of £20 again? This has to include a meal on Monday for a friend who is leaving, possibly some decorations for a British Tea Party we are also holding for her, as well as a trip up to Birmingham way to visit a friend and her fiancee. Not sure how I'm going to manage! Payday isn't until 30th.

This week I have £12.03 left unless you include the baileys I bought after fiddling petrol budget which means I only have £4.03 left. As I'm going out tonight, I'm being naughty and taking the rest of my grocery budget for the week... still only £17 to take out though so it's not that bad.
