Weekly Spend Challenge W/C 7th Feb 2010

Baileys_Babe

Sorry for being MIA all week, failed to subscribe to this thread and then I never found time to search. Well I'm here now reporting in, my only spends were £1.65 library fine (new mission, not to incurr library fines), £2 on Wednesday on a childrens activity day and a whopping £13.50 on carparking when taking the children out for the day on Thursday, thankfully the museum is free and we took a packed lunch. So I'm red :mad:.

Next week I will be green, I will be green (perhaps if I say it often enough it will be true) I will budget £7.50

Good afternoon everyone!

Pointy - please show me red this week with a spend of £77.82 out of my pledged £60.

I have a good excuse however - Homebase had an unexpected 10% off everything day on Friday and yesterday, and I've been waiting for one so that I can buy an axe and hatchet for wood chopping:

£46.98: normal total price
£42.28: with 10% discount
-16.85: redeemed from nectar card points (accrued from necessary fuel spends)
£25.43: ACTUAL TOTAL SPEND

Saving me a massive 46% off the RRPs!

For W/C 14th Feb 2010 I'd like to pledge £60 again - this week was my second red week in a row, so fingers crossed that I can get back on the green wagon! Good luck everyone!
