Mrs M
Please can you put me down for £325 for November's challenge? I'm going to include all Christmas food and hopefully drink in the next two months.
Thanks

Hi,
Not been here for a while please put me down for £250
Last couple of months I have been over, but its getting tougher now and I am determined not to go over this month.Jane 21120 -
Hello all - still on October until Sunday, but can I please have a Nov budget of £425, Mrs M
Have taken budget down by £25 - could probably go lower, but it's close to Xmas, and all that
I also know that I could do with stocking up on nappies (must check if they're VATable!) and loo rolls. And we're down to 1 bottle of shampoo (for 6 of us!)
Will join in fully when I've finished OctI am the master of my fate; I am the captain of my soulRepaid mtge early (orig 11/25) 01/09 £124616 01/11 £89873 01/13 £52546 01/15 £12133 07/15 £NILNet sales 2024: £200 -
Forgive me for i have sinned!!:o Went WAY over budget,however i have a freezer FULL of food and a stock cupboard the same. My November will start tomorrow when my 'S'shop comes and end on 27th. Needed lots of things like shower gel, washing powder etc and I also bought a mop!! It came to £68.77. Was originally £91 but with codes and savings got quite a bit off so happy with that. So this month i'm really going to try for
£200If music be the food of love then play on"No matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow". ღ ~Maya AngelouDoing it for my kids. For a better secure life. x0 -
Yes, disposable nappies are VATable
Thanks Cheryl - I guessed they probably would be (they're not exactly truly essential, after all...) - will look for some good offers and stock up thenDS3 is only 17 months, so have no plans for potty training yet
