    Good morning everyone. After a long drought, I've finally managed a green week last week with a spend of £78.59 out of a pledged £100 - woo hoo! This week I'm going to pledge £100 again, as I have already budgeted to spend £65 on a food shop tomorrow, leaving me with £35 for the rest of the week.

    solongmarianne - sorry to hear about your horrendous journey.

    psychopathbabble - fish and chips, yummy! At least it'll be a real treat - my mouth is salivating just thinking about it - enjoy!

    loopylorial - welcome to the thread!

  • Hi,

    Can I join in at £40.00? Sounds a bit high but it'll be my first attempt and I owe someone £20.00, meaning technically it'll only be £20.00.

    Thanks!

  • Hi

    Sorry I keep pledging then either forgetting and going over or deserting you all!

    Back again ....have £15 this week...no spend day today

    I intend to have drinks with friends this week but other than that not going near the local shop! I decided that was my downfall as I pop in for milk/bread and spend £10 each time so totally avoiding it now

    Evening All

    Had a spangly NSD today, and been exceptionally good, did some exercise, stuck to my weight watcher's points all week, feeling really positive as I'm just about to super balance transfer a loan which had a massive APR to my MBNA on 0% for 9 months, today has been a good day!
