    You've hit the nail on the head there with the words I've highlighted - unnecessary spends have been avoided - that's the point of the challenge, it makes you think about what you're spending.

    Stick with us...

    Well done for no 1, great start to the month for you, keep going now. Will update your total later when I do the roundup.

    Have a great day

    Not so today sadly, went to Wilko's for cat food and washing powder (neither of which were any cheaper than the supermarket I fear...) and bought a Snickers because it's a spend day and someone mentioned them earlier :o Still a way to go!! :D

  • Right I am late. Very late since I dropped off the band wagon in June and am only just climbing back on!

    Spoon, can you please put me down for 10 this month (going to push myself) and I have one to declare already. Fabulous.

    Thanks!

    Can someone please give me a huge kick up the backside!!!! I've fallen off the DFW wagon too much lately and the bruises are starting to show!! Just worked out my total debt has actually gone up by over £100 last month, because i succumbed to the temptations of new clothes from my catalogue. And I've only got 2 NSDs so far this month.

    Sorry to hear you've been poorly BDINI, hope you're feeling better.

    There's no chance I can catch up on the 6 pages I've missed, anyone care to fill me in on the gossip?! :)
    Trying to jump back onto the moneysaving wagon .... :cool:
