I have spent more today, taking me up to my budget. Any more spends takes me right over.
Maybe that I need to reevaulate the budget. I don't spend frivilously, it's just groceries and petrol mainly, but I need to be realistic. Will try continue trying this budget for the next 3 weeks and then review. So expecting a mighty overspend this week.
At least I can see where it is all going:)Debt £26k 18/10/140 -
