    Had an NSD yesterday, but definitely going to max out today, £1 for dress down day, and if I got to WW then I want some bars, hmm, maybe I'll miss it this week and go next week and get some!
    Hope everyone is enjoying the sun, its lovely here

    Hi all

    I'm a bit late joining in this week, but have been watching my spends.

    My pledge this week is £13.50 (£12 for the week plus £1.50 left over from last week :)).

    So far I've spent £2.95 on postage and 55p on a drink, so I'm down to £10 to last the rest of the week, which should be ok.

    Think it's going to be a NSD today as I don't have to go out.

    Well i've totally blown it. I ended up spending a whopping £16.13 on taxi's to and from hospital as i've broken some ligaments in my left knee:(.

    Plus extras on food so that i don't have to cook.

    Anyways thanks for adding to the list. Please could i join in next week for £20 for food, expenses etc

    Thanks x

    £3.04 total, so that's £6.96 to keep me going.

    Thanks for adding me to the list Pointy, hope you're enjoying your holiday.

    Having a good week, OH has had a weeks AL and we have been enjoying the weather. All spends so far have been budgeted for, mainly groceries. Camping with friends this weekend, should be a no spend weekend as all activities are on site :D

    I'll report back on our return any spends.

    For next week I'll pledge £10.
