Well... only spent food budget but did go out with the cash which my Nan gave me for her Avon order, so really I failed, spent £15
Did have 4 No Spend days though

This week, £7.50 and this time it's all that's left in my purse until Friday, payday.
And I'm not going out, but do have to pay £6.60 on car parking next week But it's for overtime at work worth £60

I've spent precisely ZERO the whole week :j :j :beer: Only because it was my first week back at work after two weeks off and I was too shattered to go in any shops, but still YAY!

This week I'll go for £10 and....

Also have mini challenge with PeachPickle regarding the montly occurence known as the Payday Blowout, so we've challenged each other, to no more than £10 spent on payday, just coz we've got the money doesnt mean we have to spend it!

a separate £10 for the Payday Blowout. I have a very bad habit of spending 90% of my money in the Three Days Of Pay :mad: But not this month! No!

Thanks for keeping us on track with this Moozie - it's kind of nice to see my name in lights as it were .

I planned to spend £17 last week but came in at just £7
However, I have spent a fair bit today as I have been out for lunch

For next weeks challenge I only have £4.50 left in my purse so gonna try my best to manage till Friday on that.

Good luck all

I didn't spend anything today, infact its been a good week for me. All I spent was about £35 on petrol all week!

Jesscat

Well last week I spent £61.94 almost twice my budget :mad:
Cant think what ive got coming up next week so cant decide on my budget :think:
Im definitely not going out, im working mon to thurs so shouldn't have to spend anything there but will need some extras such as cat food and milk at home also need to put in for some kittys at work so im going to say £15

Thanks Moozie this is really helping x

Bad day for spending

£29.48 in argos - new saucepans and steamer not really needed but I hate the ones that I have. So thought stuff it I will buy some new ones :rotfl:
£1.89 in wilkinsons
£15 petrol
£10 petrol money for stepdaughter
£4 ish in sainsburys

But I don't care really. As I have much more important things to think about at the moment than money.

Yours

Well done on getting back on track Gemmzie! I am sure you will do better this week although you have set yourself quite a challenge. Don't forget, setting a realistic target is almost as important as sticking to the budget!

Good luck and I look forward to seeing how you do this week :T

Thanks for doing this. I'm hoping for a better week this week. I did sort of lose the plot a bit. This week, I won't be including anything which I've already included in my budget (seems right to me).

My purse has £15.60, so that's me for this week. I will be spending £5 on work lottery (I know not really dfw) and £4.25 on slimming world on Wednesday so that really leaves me with £6.35. Right now I can't see where I "need" to spend any money so here's to a better week.
