    I've thought twice about the £20 challenge and have decided to bow out early :o

    I'm simply not hardcore enough to make it last. I managed to buy everything I needed this morning with free Nectar points :A, but still bought DD a bottle of Ribena (which she then proceeded to pour over the back seat of my car!!! :mad:)

    I have a rare night out planned on the 6th Feb, so that would wipe out my £20 in one......Good luck to all, I'll be watching with interest ;)

  • Sheesh Shaun, you should qualify for emergency Chocci rations from UK at those rates...cheek of it.

    15 NSD'S is good Hypno- i may join you on the £20 challenge, i am setting Mr.B a similar challenge as well. I think he may enjoy it- a bit like sweets when you haven't had any..:)

    And another NSD managed today.......

    macgirl, you SHOULD join in the £20 challenge - it is not a competition, but a personal challenge, so if you only manage to make your £20 last for 2 days, then your next challenge would be to make £20 last 3 or 4 days.....

    go on, join in the fun **insert banned roll eyes smiley here**

    Evening - would join the challenge but am spending £3-5 a day on parking at Colchester Hospital at moment so thats a no-no!!!.

    Mum was rushed in 2am last Sunday - sister arrived from USA 103.0pm Sunday evening but has gone back today - slight improvement but thats it.

    Glad you have resurfaced Hypno - hope you are feeling more "sorted"

    Off again ........................... bfn
