    I am going to declare at £263, not as bad as I expected. I will have to buy things today but that will go on March's budget.

    Afternoon

    Somehow I don't need to go to the shops today so I'm declaring for Jan&Feb at£906.04 which is £106.04 over where I wanted to be for my annual budget so is officially rubbish:(

    I don't know why I set Feb so low - I thought it would curb my spending but it didn't!

    Anyway, I've decided to switch back to monthly so see you all over in March :)
    August Shopping Challenge. 26/8. Budget £250 Spent £256.81.. £6.81 over. So £0.00 a day left.
