Hi All

My April total came to £215:38, so £20:38 over isn't too bad I guess
Having said that, £32 was spent on special offer cheddar & is still secreted in Grandma's fridge so all the greedy meeces here can't snaffle it
Like others have said tho, I really MUST try harder in May

Hi, I would like to declare at £84.89 for April.
I'm not quite sure what's happened this month as this is the first month I have come in under budget ........ I thought I must have missed a receipt but I've checked and I haven't. Maybe just getting the hang of budgeting better
Could you please put me down for £100 for May.

Total year to date: £870 :j
Looking back at bank statements 3 years ago would have been over £2000 by now:eek::eek::eek:
So really pleased, keeping track on a spreadsheet is a great help, noticed each time I pop into my local Tescos I buy a fudge....well it is only 15p:cool:
but I do that 3-4 times a week so 3 x 15 = 45p pw x 52 weeks = £23.40 a year on fudges
Must try harder in May....no more fudges, well maybe just once a week0 -
Over by £40 so total spending was £200.00 and a few pence. I am finding that keeping a record certainly helps.Make £2 a day challenge - doing well so far.0
