Hello, this is my first monthly challenge, I'v been watching and reading all your posts for a couple of months and have finally had the willpower to join in,I'm going to do food and petrol challenge in August and am setting my first budget for £350 as I don't have a clue what I spend and am quite ashamed to admit that It may seem quite a lot just for two people and a cat on a day to day basis but I have frequent visits from son who works quite close and often pops in to raid fridge on a lunch time and grandchildren who we have to stay about 6 -7 days a month. A also going to try for 8 NSDs. I am quite excited, I love a challenge!!!

Good morning,
I posted this months amount on the July thread, but just to make sure I will post it here too. Please can you put me down for
£150 this is for everything for 2 adults and two greedy boys, one a teen with hollow legs! I did an inventory last night of all foodstuffs in the house- wow I did'nt realise I had soooo much food! I'm hoping to spend very little of the budget this month and what's left will be put into savings.
Good luck everybody
