Hi, I've been following the Sept GC for the last week or so and I would like to give it a go, I saved my reciepts for a week and was way over budget :eek:
Please put me down for $800 for October
This will include cleaning products/dog food/shampoo ect

Hi everyone

Can I try again this month please? (Emphasis being on the word try). I failed dismally last month, not keeping track of grocery spending towards the end.

I don't think I was too much over target though, just didn't keep a record for the last 2 weeks How does everyone else do it?

I'd like to go for £350 again this month please

Must come on and post so that I can get a well deserved kick up the bum if I forget to keep tabs on spends.

Hello all,

Can I please go for £170? I was a member of the grocery challenge last year and had made lots of good savings, but haven't done it for a while.

The £170 is for two adults and two cats with expensive tastes

I have already made one spend and will pop in when I can find the receipt for it. This is to last me until October 21st - the day before payday.

Morning All,

Thanks for the new thread ladies.

I failed miserably last month and am taking the pressure off this month by upping my challenge to £200 for October - hopefully it will be more acheivable, and I am hoping to start stocking up for Christmas too. I will try harder to post regularly, too.
