  • Can I put myself down for £37.70 this week please pointy. Reason for the odd amount is that I am going to try for £25 a week for clothes, gifts and personal spends and this amount is what's left over from last week plus this weeks.

    I have spent most of it already.

    £3 on a collection for someones new baby at work ( I also knitted a hat)
    £13.71 on a fascinator for a wedding in june
    £11 on jewellry (a second hand gold locket)

    So far: £27.71
    Grocery Challenge £114.22/ £110

  • Morning all

    Haven't spent anything since Tuesday and I think have just enough milk to last me until Saturday :)

    So hoping to stay on £16.08, if I manage that I may have to re-think my target for next week . . .

    Have a great day

    Now ok I see you coming and saying she's done it again. All red not even at the end of the week but I have a good excuse I promise (but not proud of what happened tbh). Well had an emergency tight and skirt purchase following somebody pointing out to me in the lift at work that I had ripped the back of my trousers (and was showing a little flesh). Very red face. Damage is I am now at £40.34. Good skirt though from g0p, can be used again for work and in cotton.
