psychopathbabble

i am very definitely red.... spend loads of money yesterday on sweets for exam, then cider and chocolate to celebrate after! Haven't even bought my bag for work yet.

System

This week I have spent £41.41. Which was £20 for the cleaner, £2 subs for band rehearsal and £19.41 on groceries.

BUT, I sold a ticket to a comedy show for £21 and had a refund from Scottish Power of £79.63 which makes £100.63.

So I'm actually £59.22 up on the week!!! -£59.22 spent against £50 target.:money::j

Does that make me purple then?? :T

System

just checked and realised I'm yellow not purple! Oops

I managed to just spend over, spent £4 in the chippy for dinner and then had to buy a headlight bulb for my car which i was not expecting which was £10, so in total iv spent £16 when i was aiming for £15, so close.

Wow cashback queen - what a great result!

Well done Andy for completing your first week - you are a lot closer than me!

I haven't spent anymore since thursday thank goodness. Will have to reduce next weeks budget to do damage limitation. I want to spend next week knitting and sewing not spending!

Don't want to even add it up to see just how over i went, really need to stick to budgets for the next few weeks as i have about £40 left to last me 3 weeks now!

I'm green :j£25 total for this week.

Are we doing pledges here too? Actually need to have a think about it, um, I think I need about £10 for public transport for a seminar I'm going to, and I've got a gig on Thursday so owe a friend £7 for tickets, plus a bit for expenses

So £30 for next week please!
