Afternoon all,

I came in over budget by something measly like 83p last week, so a big fat red for me.

Can I be put down for £19 this week please? Slightly higher budget than usual as I've got a packed social calender this week, but fortunately tickets and meals are paid for already meaning I just have to buy drinks etc.

I hope you all have a fabulous week. xx

Completely lost control of my budget, really need to get back on the MSE wagon!
Bought leggings for £5 and lunch was £3.90, bought a big toblerone and a sealed tin (for sealed pot challenge) for a quid each, and some fruit for £2 which leaves £7.10 for the rest of the week, not including theatre trip to London tomrrow as thats a seperate budget. Whoops.

Evening all,

Welcome to oreo I have added you to the list.

Sarsief sounds like you have an exciting week planned. Where are you originally from?

No spends for me today which means the week is off to a good start. Long may it continue.:j

After a great NSD yesterday, including a trip to the theatre, I discovered something this morning that made me want to kick myself.

My £19 budget for the week is actually £14 as I stupidly left the fiver in the self service checkout at Morrisons :mad: Why must they dispense the notes and coins separately? WHY?!!!!

So anyway, instead of lowering my budget, I'm going to declare £5 spent today to teach me a lesson about paying attention!

I do hope everyone elses week started a little better! xx

Not really such an exciting week, but I have to budget for extra train travel spend as need to stay away from home this weekend, which means most likely needing to spend a bit more than would want to otherwise.
Am studying so not out much atm which is saving me money.

I'm from Melbourne, have been in London for about 3.5 years ... tis why I have no money!!! hehe, but well worth it!

Spent £1.30 on coffee today, but shouldn't be spending any more.

Spent £3 of my food budget on Monday night, and £2 yesterday from the weekly spends for the work Christmas fuddle (if you're not from Yorkshire that word may be confusing!) so still very much on track, taking £20 out on Friday! Very excited now
