Oh dear I have failed this week !!

Im £34.45 over as I had some last min birthday purchases to buy for some friends so Im giving up till sunday then starting again with £15.00

I need to split my money into budgets as I used to but life has been hetic and trying to get everything out of one budget doesnt work when you have three birthdays to buy for!

I will try harder next week...I promise!:A

As I predicted I blew it this week (making it 2/3 when I've gone red ). So I got my shoes £7.99, then, and this is what really did it, I ventureed onto the "grab it while u can" board (fatal why do I do it???) and then popped to Sains and got their box of Stella@ for £5 nd some mushrooms for tea, then popped in to Tesco and got a couple of bits for £2.29, I wouldn't normally count food as its budgeted elsewhere but I overspent on that this week as well.... Oh well I'm red and my total is £23.96 (its not too shabby). Will work out what I need for next week....

ops realised calculations are wrong! maths has never been my strong point hence being on here...

£23.96 as detailed
£3.40 at asda yesterday, sr/pl flour, daffs for friend new house, easter egg
£20 petrol

Total £47.36

I've not been paid this month because my boss has failed to do a tiny piece of admin :mad:

Luckily I've only spent money where I had budgeted, so nothing spent so far this week, not sure what we are doing tomorrow so I won't declare until then.

Please put me down for £5.50 :mad:

Must do better next week ..... Will post next week's budget later ....

Total to date: £7.97/ £40.

Well I may not have left the house but unfortunatly e-bay is at home:

£2 on a bit for DH's bag strap that had broken
£2.50 for a bit for the washing machine
£6.50 for a thomas the tank "Bill".

I did also use the £20 set aside for storage for DS (along with another £30 but that was profit from last weeks ebay sales so not counted).

Total today: £31

Total for week: £38.97/ £40 so WOOOOP Green!!!!!

£20 for next week please.

No idea what I've spent this week, but its more than £10, so I'm declaring RED for this week, and I'd like to try and stick to £10 next week please.

Happy Easter everyone

I've still got my £10 intact, and my mentoring was cancelled this week but I have to go and buy a birthday card and a couple of other bits today so I'll check in later with the total!

Spent my last few pounds and pence on swimming for the kids yesterday and drinks at Bella Italia (meal courtesy of Mr T ) DH put the rest to so I didn't go into the red!
So a green for me of £13.50/£13.50.

I'll go for £20 next week please.
