All new 100 day challenge - it's 31 or less!

Hey Isla, welcome to the challenge. We take it month by month so there is just 9 days left of this challenge but its a great time to start!!!

I have stuck to all my pledges, but spent way too much money this week on going out as I haven't been working. Back to normal now though so hopefully the spending will stop.

Hey! :wave:

Thanks for the welcome. I'll be brave and stick to my pledges and run them for May as well then. Might as well start as I mean to carry on!

It's so hard not to just watch the money disappear when you're off work, hopefully you won't spend so much now you're back at work

I forgot to say Fedup will be along at some point when she notices that there is new posts on there..... and add you to the list on the front page.

I usually try to budget for nights out each month, but I forgot about a wedding reception I was going to and I went out unplanned Monday night and had a few drinks last night too. Luckily I had money I could use (which before Nov I wouldn't have!) but now I've eaten into my birthday celebration money. Vicious circle!!! Grrrrr.

Anyway, good luck! My pledges are the same each month, I actually keep adding to them!

Still using up my toiletries. Cannot believe how long it has taken me to use the ones I have got. They are going down slowly. In the long run I have saved quite a bit.

Welcome aboard isla - I've added your pledge to the first page

As for me only 2 things bought this month which was SPF once a day application to help my skin with the eczema cream and a garden weeder that enabled me to get all the dandelions out of the lawn in record time with no back ache

2 items bought from QVC - feel I can allow myself those ones as needed and planning no more for this month and next month

This is my last post on here for a week as off on holiday - see you all when I return and good luck for the final week of April - be good out there¬

I've just realised its a new month!! Gosh this year is flying by. I used up a face scrub thing the other day that I've had a long time, and I can now start the new tube which I bought at christmas 09 to get the bonus points when I bought a perfume.

Snap here!

I used up a St Ives facial scrub as a body scrub and now opened my delightfully extravagent Molton Brown one which was a birthday present.

And.....this is my last body scrub - no more in stock at long last after years!

I meant christmas 08 for that scrub I bought!! Although I used it the other day and it smells weird, not sure if it's 'gone off' as its an organic scrub or whether it actually smells like that.

Realised yesterday I don't actually miss magazines that much, I get a fix of them at work. Still not used any credit cards, and last week I ate out a lot but it was a celebratory week for my birthday so doesn't count!!
