Well done on the weight loss pointy penguin!

Psychopathbabble - you can tell me off if you want! I don't mind! I also do this crazy thing where I layer nail varnish to make different colours. I put pink on and then gold - or peach and silver and see what it looks like!

I spent 50p last night at knitting group. So I only have 50p to last me 2 days!!

I need a staying in the house day on Sat I think!

I have totally lost track of my spending this week, but I'm definitely red again:doh:

I absolutely have to stick to budget next week, not only do I have to stick to it ,I have to reduce it to £30:eek: (think I'll have to bury my purse in the deep freeze!)

We have not had the internet most of the time we have been away from home. This week I have spent £84.53 mainly on meals out and other food. Sounds like the building work at home is going well. I will declare later this weekend incase their is any further spends.

I spent £4.94 yesterday on a McDonalds, chocolate and car wash! All of these things could have been avoided but I've been so good all week!! I've only spent £10.94 out of my £30 budget woohoo!!! 1st time ever I think! I'll definately be back for next weeks challenge.

Ok, I don't really know how much I've spent but I haven't 'borrowed' any money from anywhere so I must be on track for a green week.

Been playing with my snowball and updated it, I have a huge incentive to stick to my small budget as I can hopefully be debt free by the end of next year... just need to stop wasting cash (as i keep repeating every single week i do this!!)

For a minute there I was thinking you meant a real snowball. I got a bit confused!

Well done on all the greens peeps. I am green too! I spent today at the allotment so a free day out. 50p left - what do you all do with the leftovers - put it in a money box?

I don't ever have leftovers... but my plan is to put them all in a change pot to put towards debt....

:rotfl: summer might have gone but it's not that cold yet!

Hello everyone,

First time I've tracked what I spend in a week and I'm well and truly in the red. Challenge was £80 but I've spent £123.22 - mostly on food for my teenage boys:eek:. PP please put me down for £80 again this week - I need to cut the food budget down and given I've got a garden full of vegetables it is achievable - I just can't stop squirreling away food in the cupboards (just in case) - I've got enough in the cupbards and chest freezer to last 'till the boys leave home:).

Hope most of you did better than me.
