  • Evening everyone, this week I spent all of my £30 budget, but did not go over. NSD today, son didnt even want ice-cream van which saved money until Wednesday night when he the van comes round again.

    I'll budget £30 for this week again. I get paid on Thursday so cant wait. Been fly ladying so that keeps my mind off money, LOL x

    I've spent £10 on a Playstation 2 game, and £3.97 on a CD album which was just too good a bargain to miss.

    NSD yesterday which is not bad as I usually go mad at the weekend.
    I :heart2: saving money
  • Funny, when I think I'm gonna spend a lot I don't and when I think it's a cheap week I spend loads!

    Spent only £8.40 this week out of a £15 budget.

    Aiming for £10 this week.
  • Evening everyone

    I'm back on the no spend days!

    For next week's challenge I am hoping to spend no more than £5.

    hey moozie & all!! hope everyone's had a fun weekend. I found when I logged on today that I haven't posted the last two days?!!!!! which is weird, knew I hadn't had time yesterday but I thought I had on Friday. very strange. normally I'm on every day avidly scanning the DFW threads so don't know what happened there!!! anyway I've had quite a cheap week, spent £12.57 on unbudgeted items. This week I will set the budget at £25.
  • Well I've had a NSD so I'm well chuffed!

    For the first time I'm gonna have a budget - see how it goes! I'll aim for £30 this week, not including the MOT that might or might not happen this week!

    Hiya, I overspent last week, went £10 over my budget of £75 for everything including petrol. This week I'm on £65 to counteract the extra tenner last week. So far spent £25.74 on petrol (had to drive Bristol to Leeds), 85p on a paper and 3.12 on some lunch. So I have £35.29 left over including groceries.

    Good luck everyone!
