Howdy Budgeteers,

I started the week very well with two (nearly 3) NSD's. Have spent £3.91 so far, so am on track.

Hope everyone else is doing well xx

13.70 spent today. Not too terrible for 2 course meal plus drink in Zizzis and parking. The meet up was a much needed distraction today

Hello all, I'm so pleased with this chat thread. I've managed to spend only £9-60 this week. Trying to encourage my auntie to do it as well for a bit of mutual support. Please put me down for £15 next week. Thanks.

Could I join this challenge please. I am trying hard to cut back on my spending and I think this will give me the push i need. Could you put me down for £40 for week commencing 22nd August please
