    Evening all. Went for a lovely vegan potluck although ended up spending £12.14 in Mr MS, and most dishes there were barely £2 cheapskate vegans. Although the vegan mulled wine I bought was very yummy.
    First mini-challenge moment was buying 2 packets of oranges for £3 when I only needed one, so I put the other ontop of the newspaper rack and saved myself £0.91 which will get paid towards something when I can decide what =) yay

    ooooh I can't wait to update your total tomorrow! Glad you had a good and non spendy saturday evening. I did too but got sooooo drunk but in a good way. Hope your week gets better hun xxx

    To multi-quote... click the little button with the two coloured speech bubbles under the post you want to quote.... a tick should appear... ifyou do this for all the ones you want to quote (it used to be max 3, not sure now) and then click 'quote' on the last one, they should all appear!

    not sure if this works when you go from one page to the next... someone else might know :)

    Important Notice
    To help me run this thread easily, could you please all post your totals in large text and in a bold colour, i.e.:
    £265.43/£7685.67
    (where the first amount is the total you have paid off so far in this challenge and the second amount is the total you pledged to clear by Xmas 2012.
    It would also be a big help if you could also put with it your number from the 2nd post.
    i.e. another £50 paid off so now the total for
    #001 is £315.43/7685.67

    When I joined MSE I never thought I'd be doing anything like this so picked a completely rubbish username! I really wish I'd picked something more easy for people to remember and just normal sounding... Oh well, I never thought I'd be running a challenge!
