    I was red last week (lack of forethought, just plucked figure from the air!)
    This week i'm going for £30 between me and OH on anything apart from fuel for the car.

    I ended the week on £20, so in the green for me. Another £20 for this week please!

    Our greatest weakness lies in giving up; always try just one more time

  • Hi! This is great motivation for me. My budget is £55 pw - I managed approx £56 last week - see if I can do £55 this week. I'm doing this for food as I have £0 budget to work with other than food, everything else is essential. I have £55 in my expenditure budget for buses but have managed to walk anytime I haven't had the car.

    Welcome to the newbies I have added you to the list let us know how your week goes.


    RFTA how long does it take from HND to a degree? Sounds like you have a good plan of action it must be hard to be motivated to get all your uni work done.

    No spends to report for me today as anything spent came from grocery budget.

    Hi everyone :wave: sorry for reporting back / signing up so late, I can't believe it's already Tuesday.

    Last week I spent no money which wasn't already budgeted for, so purple.

    I'm going to try for £10 for this week.

    I'm off now to update signature, subscribe to this thread as well as catch up with every ones posts.
