Hi PP
glad to see that others get red weeks too (in the money sense IYKWIM).

What are you reading for your book group?
Do you think an online bookgroup would work- as mine has folded recently:mad:

We are reading The girl with the dragon tattoo which I have not finished yet. Only 400 pages to read before Wednesday!

Heatherykins and found a bargain welcome I have added you to the list.

Good morning everyone!

It looks like we've got a few more greens than the previous week - well done everyone, and a good effort to those who only just slipped into the red ... maybe this week we'll get a green full house?

I too am reporting in green for last week (about time too after 2 consecutive weeks in the red!) with a spend of £41.80.

This week I'll lower my pledge slightly to £50 and will keep my fingers crossed on the green full house.

Thanks as ever to Pointy for keeping this thread going and for keeping me in check with my spending! Good luck everyone.

Again another newbie. Please could you put me down for £45 - I didn't spend anything yesterday but have food shopping and a meal out still to come this week.

Morning budgeteers,

Good luck with your lower target Chris and welcome sortingmyself.

Another Monday morning and for once I am organised, I have lunch sorted and I am going to the gym after work.

Enjoy your day everyone and good luck with low spending.

hi :wave:
can I join? I've tried the NSD challange and it's just not happening (i aim for x day then DH asks me to bring home milk etc).

I am seriously OD this month and don't get paid till Friday. So after totting up what I HAVE to spend (couple of books to post for ReaditSwapit, emergency food for house - grr Cheese - why is it sooo expensive am hoping my coop have some of their 400g Cathedral at £2 left, 1days tram travel) I am going for £20 please.

(i normally aim for £20 everyweek but unfortuntly have had a couple of realllly expensivce outlays this month and aim aiming to pay for stuff out my OD - which i pay off in full on payday - rather then using my credit cards).

And I WILLL keep a spending diary from now on (have been saying that since 1st Jan).

Thanks.....

Aiming to make today a NSD.

Have already started with packed sandwiches for lunch and don't envisage any spending for today.

Hi Chickywiggle, nice to see you on this thread too. I can't manage NSD for the sme reason as you(but have only managed one green week on WSC actually:o). what's readitswap it BTW?

Newbies: actually , I still feel like a newbie myself. You might like to try the £365 in 365 days challenge to help you with your savings.
