Sounds like my week last week Kayleighpea! Don't feel bad though, think of all the days you did manage. I only did 13 out of 16 planned days in January, but it saved me loads of money - back on the wagon today taking my own lunch in again, so I feel less guilty already this week! :rotfl::dance:£2 savers challenge:dance:£152/£200:naughty:Still trying to pay off my CC

Yes, will definitely be doing the February challenge. Not too bad this month, made soup last week and had that four days out of five. The final day I had a meeting at lunchtime so had that outside the office and work expenses will cover. This week day 1 was brought in, day 2 again a lunch meeting, today someone brought in food from home to share, and I have lentil soup for the next two days.0
