Weekly Spend Challenge W/C 20th March 2011

rising_from_the_ashes

Oh my, I can't believe it's Tuesday - had a "puter" free weekend which was nice for a change!

Things improved slightly at the end of last week - NSD on Thurs & Fri (must go to the NSD challange & report in there too!) so ended up on £19.49 / £10. (If I hadn't bought that ankle brace I would've made it)!

Aiming for £10 again this week, please Pointy - still got 9 days:eek: till payday so going to be tight!

Enjoy the rest of the week!

I pledge to spend no more than £10 during the week, with no more than £40 total by Sunday. So far I have made an extra 82p this week finding money, and so far haven't spent a bean.

So far so good - one day to go and I have about £5 left of the £30 limit - and that includes £10 cash I paid out to put petrol in the car (I don't normally count petrol as I get expenses for work travel that cover pretty much all petrol costs). It's been quite a spendy week in terms of food though - of the remaining £15 I think pretty much all of it has been spent on work lunches! I'll need to be more organised next week....

Hi

I'm posting mid week as I'd like to start joining this challenge from next week please. I'll be doing the challenge everyday, and excluding only bills, savings, groceries and petrol. I'm going to subscribe now for the linky to the next week's challenge.

Thanks

Well over this week already, had to pay car insurance admin fee due to passing my driving test and decided to do a lot of my grocery shopping a week early as I'll be working a lot next week.

I don't know where this week has gone!

Had a relapse into *bucks this week for some reason (have been taking my flask but think I need a bigger one to last more than 1 cup)!

Spends ........

Coffee x 4 @ £1.50 = £6
Thurs lunch (ran out of lunch stuff) + diet coke which is now hideously expensive if you buy anywhere £4.90
Friday lunch treat = £3
Ankle brace no 2 (and it fits!) £8.99


Don't really want to add it up .... RED £22.89
(hope that's right - slightly sozzled on one can of cider - been ages since I had a drink and found 1 lonely can in a cupboard when I was looking for something for tea so I've taken pity on it!)

Hope you've all done better than me!


Pointy, trying again for £10 next week, thanks!
