No 12 today because I bunked off church (again)
As a matter of interest, - does it count as a "spend" if I put money in a church collection?
Isn't it more of a donation than a spend :question:
UDTotal debt at 01/01/2010 £34,262 (Excludes mega mortgage) Daily interest £12.42
02/10 Now £3.12 due to repayments, BT and :money:

I wouldnt count it as a spend, the same as some don't include dd's and petrol. It is part of going to church, putting in the collection.0

I was thinking along those lines, it's not as if I come out laden with purchases, all I get is the occasional piece of bread and glug of (ropey) wine.
:D

:rotfl:I'm basically doing shopping for petrol, groceries and anything else I need on one day at the weekend. Thankfully OH tends to buy a top up of milk in the week and we alternate on grocery shopping! He's also treated us to the odd take away as he knows I'm trying not to spend and trying to pay off a crazy amount of debt within 3 months!!
Number 18 today
AHHHH, I've been counting a day where any money is spent by either of us as a spending day. Aw, bless him for treating you for being so resolute. Mine gets his favourite moisturiser as a treat. He gets points on the spend then uses the points to pay for more of the same.No longer half of Optimisticpair
