Home from one of the worst night shifts ever. Don't want to go into it but lets just say, I had to change into scrubs twice due to different incidences. Spent £27.56 so far this week, mainly due to stupid train fare because I couldn't get to work any other way. Won't declare until tomorrow though because I may have made money this week! Anywho, hope everyone is doing well.

Morning all!
My spend week is running from Mon-Mon, weekends is usually when I spend the most so missing out Sat would not help me in the long run!
Anyways, yesterday spends at the shop was relativaly low i'm happy to say, had a Tesco clubcard voucher for £4.00 in my purse so that got used up! Had to buy a birthday card for a relative which was £1 or so.
So checking my purse I have spent £6.77/£40.00
Wooo hooo, I'm very happy with myself, first weekly spend challenge and it looks like I will come under budget, unless I go crazy this weekend but I will restrict myself!
Well done to everyone
