    Well this week I have only spent £5 from Mr Ts vouchers does that count as spending as it's not currency?! Lol

    I have made as of 8:50 this morning £55.65 :eek: on eBay selling my junk and 54 items are still on there including my car seat and ring which will go for £45 together hopefully! Keep you posted!

    Hope everyone has had fun no matter what has happened with their spending!

    Lots of love and hugs

    Hi all, well done to everyone, even if you didn't make your target. Like rdchick said, it's about being aware of your spending. I'm doing the NSD challenge too, and I'm really trying not to buy random magazines and chocolate. Planned spending is ok though!,
    I'm green this week, only spent. £65 so I'm happy with that. I'll have a think about next weeks spend and update tomorrow.
    Enjoy the rest of the weekend

    Hi Kath - can you clarify if you mean £65 spends??! I was confused as target was £10... :o Thanks!
