  • I am green this week, all be it by the skin of my teeth! Total spend of £29.85. Would have been much better but gave into pub lunch today.

    I'm going to pledge another £60 for next week. Quite high, but I'm going to London to see a friend's band play next Wednesday (guest list so tickets are free, so only travel and "expenses!") so have put in and extra £40 for it. :rotfl:

    i cant find the post which explains the colours, could someone please fill me in???

    i still have £25.26p left so am very pleased.

    £5 for next week please x

    Colours are green if you stayed within budget, red if you went over and purple if you managed a zero spend for the week. That makes you green for the week well done.:beer:

    Quite pleasantly and surprisingly it is green for me this week. Only spent 75p. on some sweets (and had a jolly good excuse as well).

    Can you put me for £5 again next week, please.
