  • Hiya,

    This is my first time doing a weekly spend challenge, so can you put me down for £50 please? I'm gonna be generous to myself this week and hopefully cut down on future challenges, plus I think I have a £15 spend coming up this week so have to allow for that.
  • Hi,

    This is my first time doing a weekly challenge can you put me down for £100 as I need to go food shopping tomorrow.
    I am aiming to be debt free by the time I am 30 (May 2010)
  • Hi... First challenge to officially register on...£30 (not including ebay postage, £10 for gas)

    Plenty of food in the house, so will use that up, car is filled with petrol, have enough electric and only £10 for gas, so will have to be more economical with heating!

    Wish us luck...

  • Morning all,

    I have updated the first post. Welcome to newbies and regulars alike.

    I am not sure what spends will be today as I have jury service so not sure quite what will be happening, I can't take lunch etc.

    HI all can i join in again? I was doing this last year but everything went belly up:o.
    Need to keep track of spending so please could you put me for £180 this week. I know its a lot but i have to fork out for council tax(£81) trowel, hawk and tile cutter (£70 :( ) and the leftovers for anything else we need.

    Thanks PP :)
  • Hey everyone, I went missing like Pointy last week due to a massive overspend. So much for a budget of £10. I came in very red with a total of £30.32. Mostly due to lunches out with friends being generally lazy with my food. Had a few amazon sales to post off as well.

    I'm fed up of being red because of an under-realistic budget, so this week I'm going to think it through properly.

    £25 to my friend for Lost Prophets tomorrow, say £5 for booze. Then £10 for incidental spends (and I really must control that this week). So can I please be put down for £40?

    Hope you all have a lovely week full of easily found NSD's xxxx

  • Evening all,

    I did not get picked so it was back to work for me this afternoon:(

    Spends today were £10 between lunch and had noodles with a friend as it was her birthday and didn't want her to just go home and not do anything. So I need to think frugally for the rest of the week.
