    I've had a good week so far, spent nothing :)

    In laws visited today and brought, home grown rasberries & stawberries with cream and meringue to accompany as well as a big tin of home made caramel slice :j

    As our builders were making so much necessary noise we went out for lunch which the in laws insisted on paying :D

    We are planning on having a home based day tomorrow, house work, gardening, sorting and decluttering - shouldn't be any spends, famous last words.

    Good afternoon everyone!

    I hope everyone is enjoying the fantastic weather - I've been missing in action this week, so I'm reporting in a little late (sorry!) - Pointy, please can you show me:
    * green for last week (28th June 2010) with a spend of £59.60 (woo hoo!)
    * I'm a bit too late for this week (4th July 2010), so no pledge for me.
    * Next week (11th July 2010), I'm away for a few days, but I'll try to limit myself with a pledge of £80 - fingers crossed!

    Have a good weekend everyone, and don't forget to "slip on a shirt, slop on sunscreen, and slap on a hat".

    Morning All

    I had a chinese on Fri night with BF so that brought my challenge to £13.65. The chinese was lovely though but I'm over budget this week so its red for me. I'm going to go middle of the road this week and pledge £15 and see if I can meet that. Thanks.

  • Oops forgot to subscribe to this weeks thread and only just found it. Am red again!! Not sure how much I've spent but bought a dress yesterday, bought some kitchen things and have definitely gone over.

    £10 this week please, this is only until Wednesday as Thursday I am off to a festival and sold my spare ticket to get some spending money. In theory I should have a purple week!

    Hope all is well x
  • Hi there, could you put me down for £15 this week please? I really need to get into the habit of spending less again.

    Thanks,
