    Yay Pointy! Nice hear someone shares my view that James Cameron should not be allowed near a script!! Everyone I know was so blown away by the shiny graphics they didn't notice that the film itself was technically very poor, lol.

    I came in green last week, which is surprising. £30 spent on a yummy meal out with family on Wednesday and then 4 NSD's in a row! Oooh!

    I've quit smoking (eeeek) and paid for a 12 week block of Slimming World upfront (to avoid the rise in subs that happens this week, sneaky) so I shouldn't have anything to spend this week. Can you put my down for £10 this week please?

    Happy New Year all and welcome to the newcomers xxx

    £20 for me again please. I need to spend around £16 on DDs ballet show so hopefully I won't spend the rest!

  • Can I be cheeky and ask how you got to see that for £1.30?????
    xx

    I have a cinema card and if you reuse your 3D glasses they only charge £1.30 now instead of £1.50 they used to for 3D films.

    It was amazing what they can do with the technology they just need someone to write a more interesting story.

    Congrats kate_pixie, I gave up on the 23.12.2009 at 20h30 so I know how that feels. Well done!

    I would also like to pledge £5 for this week as I have no intentions of going anywhere except work or spending any money this week. This will include any incidental spending as well as groceries. Anything that is not covered by a direct debit.

    Cheers

    Hi Pointy, Hi All hi-103.gif

    Um..... can I come back please?? :o:D. I meant to just have one week off for buying christmas bits but it seems it turned into the whole of December.

    I however am back on track with a new mini spending diary (a blue one this year not quite so good as purple!).

    I am going to start from tomorrow though this week (as I've been shopping today:o). Can you put me down for £14.14 please PP.

  • Hello people!

    I did this challenge months ago and it was brilliant... so thought I'd come back to get 2010 off to a good start. Thanks for running this challenge - can you put me down for £15 this week please? Already have tmw's packed lunch packed up so I don't get tempted on the first day back at work : )

    Good luck all and Happy New Year
