    NSDs for me so far this week (excluding the death of laptop and spare tyre) so on track to keep within my budget.
    Good luck all

  • Evening all,

    I have updated the first post let me know if anything is not right. Welcome to the newbies.

    I got given £4 by my friend from Friday night as I overpaid her for the taxi as I didn't have any change. In this is a £2 coin which automatically goes in the terramundi. I also had £2.50 left in my purse from the weekend. So I am amending my budget to £24.50. Today I spent £3.50 on lunch in the canteen and that was it, any other spends were from the food budget.

    Well done everyone there was a lot of green last week and a purple too, well done Pink.
    Weekly Spend Challenge: £0/£30

    Hi PointyPenguin

    Please can I join your WSC? I'd like to post £20 for the rest of this week. I had a NSD today and I hope to have another tomorrow. I draw my spends each week in cash on Friday. feel I need this challenge as I spent £30 on fake tan in Boots' on sat and told OH that it was for 'essential toiletries'. He didn't dare ask any further!!:rotfl:

    £1.49 spends for me today and £1 into my best coin forwards pot which leaves me with £37.51. Need to keep spending down this week to allow extra for my weekend away :) hopefully a low one tomorrow too!
    Total debt at LBM... £16,815.02 :eek:
  • Ok I'm back on the wagon for now.... £15 this week for me please.

    I have a few events this month but have tried as much as possible to budget separately for these so fingers crossed I can stay on track. I have also managed to finish paying my friend this month! One debt down!

    baileys babe, my best coin forward pot is a challenge I'm part of, each day the biggest coin I have in my purse goes into a pot to be counted at the end of the month and used to pay off cards. I forgot to account for it last week so am remembering now!

    A bad day for me, day out meant a spend of £7.44. Hoping to keep it low again tomorrow!

    Hope everyone else has done better than me!
