    Yay! I've had only one spend day this week and that was a top up grocery shop; unfortunately, OH forgot the shopping list and blew my budgeted £35 pledge out of the water with a spend of £54.82 - d'oh!

    So pointypenguin, you can show me red for this week already. Valuable lesson learnt though - don't let OH loose in the shops without a shopping list!

    Have a good New Year's Eve everyone!

  • Morning all,

    I have updated the first post let me know if I have missed anything.

    I am in the middle of New Year's Eve preparations like doing my hair then need to go shopping to find something to wear :eek:

    No idea about spends it has all been rather up in the air so I will calculate it all up when I am finished battling in the shops.

    Have a good day all.

    I've never joined any of these things before, but I really need to pay off as much as poss off my credit cards this year, so here goes. I'm going to set myself £30. No need for a new outfit for new years, am wearing an old favourite dress!

  • Well, I got hit for £9.05 in library fines.. OMG!! I am still in shock.. Own fault I know but :mad:. That £10 could have gone towards my debt..

    On the plus side, I did go into a well known supermarket this morning to do some grocery shopping. Whilst checking my receipt, I saw that I had been charged more for some enchilladas than was actually displayed. I went and complained and they refunded the price that I had actually paid so got them for free.

    But still within my £12 so guess that's ok..
