    Spent another £1.50 on Thursday but a NSD today so I have come in at £4.25p under budget. Tomorrow I start a new week so can I be put down for £80 again please. Tomorrow I am having my hair cut and eyebrows sorted and next week we are away on holiday mon-fri but I still hope to keep within budget as I won't be spending on food and OH pays for drinks etc.
    Mortgage and Debt free but need to increase savings pot. :think:
  • I'm afraid that a red week is now inevitable!:o

    Spends up to yesterday - £2.51
    Spend yesterday - £3.65 (Train Ticket in to go to Tutorial)
    Spend today - £16.65 for a grocery shop that should last the next 4-5 days for me and OH (however, I was cheeky and reckless and put 2 of those Galaxy Cookie Crumble bars in the trolley because I felt I needed one and if I had one OH would demand one too!) That's what did the damage!:(

    I've also got a tutorial on saturday morning, so need another train ticket at £3.65 which will take me over my £25.00 budget

    *hangs head in shame and vows to do better next week - why does that chocolate bar have to taste so good?!*:mad:

    Current spend = £25.00/£22.81
    :A2014 = my year for change!:dance:
    :mad:Credit Cards are NOT my friends and I'm NOT playing with them anymore:p

    Tell me about it! I had a bad ending to the day at work yesterday (not so much for me but the other people I was with) so I went to Mr T on the way home to buy some snacky bits to have with a big drink when I got home. So another £5.04 down the drain.

  • Big fat red for me.... £40.61 spent. But, before November, this would have meant me spending on credit card by now. Now though, I actually still have money left for the budgets for the rest of the month! How long they last, who knows? I'm still spending too much money in general on stuff but I know where most of the pennies go now at least.
