Hi everyone

Thanks as ever the MrsM, Rosieben and Pink for the thread

After my rash promise to keep up with last months thread I completely didn't ... oops!

Must try harder! Unsure of total grocery spends for April as I did a lot of stocking up (due to a certain grabbit) but I do think i stayed in budget

Can I be put down for £250 for May please? Am now planning for £50 per week starting Sunday, so this will account for my shopping until 4th June :eek: Anything left over will be split between Xmas and baby funds.

Good luck everyone

Thanks for the new thread Pink, also big thanks to MrsM and Rosieben for all their hard work.

Please could you put me down for £200 again this month - I keep going over but am getting nearer every time.

Hello Ladies

May I join in please? I should like to aim for £350 for May.

One of my problems is that, as we are both retired, 'im indoors' sometimes escapes and takes himself off to Mr T without asking permission. He then comes home with bargains (genuine ones) he has found but that I hadn't budgeted for. Don't mind this toooo much - it's the occasional 'I just fancied somes' that I find it harder to deal with......need to get him more involved I guess!!

Hello again! Can you please put me down for £200 please, and this month I must stick to it!

Right I need to get back in this.

I'm in for £100 for two us for food as well as washing powder/cleaning products and loo rolls not that I need any of those products at the moment. As have shed loads in.

Alcohol comes out of own money and so does toiletries.

I have a freezer full. Just really need to buy frozen veg and fresh fruit.

Mind you I know I will forget to keep updating as I am like that. Rather forgetful:rotfl:

Yours

Thanks Pink, Rosieben & Mrs McC for the new thread. No spend day today for me - watched the wedding & then had a lovely afternoon at a country park with OH & the kids. Did have a takeaway for dinner but luckily I dont include then in the challenge!

I'm new to this so I'm not sure what I'm going to need, but I've got £80 out in cash and i'm going to try and not spend it.

I'm moving into a new flat and don't have anything at all. I need to buy a sack of pots of the market for a fiver, but other than that there's only me so i'm sure I can manage comfortably. I want to buy some dried stocks this month and then half my budget next month.

This includes all purchases - clothes, food, cat fud, toilet roll - the lot.

Hi can you put me down for £300 please for 4 of us - baby on the way need to spend less - bit out of control at the moment - well worth doing ASDA and price check guarantee though had £4 worth of vouchers from them this week.

Hi can you put me down for £100 for May please.

Spent £31.58 yesterday in mr a's, I have updated my sig. It should last a couple of weeks and will probably only need to get fresh stuff
