    Evening.

    £4.78 for me so far - drinks and a collection at work. Have a drink at lunchtime on Friday so fingers crossed should come under my £10!

    Doing this has really helped me this week. My £10 is just for the bits and bobs during the week (things you don't really need to spend on) (not food or petrol).

    :p

  • Morning all

    Payday today and I couldn't sleep so I have been sorting out all the budgeting for the next month. I was over quite a bit last month which is going to make this month tight especially with Xmas and all the nights out.

    Spends for Wed and Thurs:
    • £11 on wine for bookgroup
    • £3 on taxi home
    • £5 on breakfast & coffee Wed/Thurs
    • £4.50 lunch Thurs
    Total £23.50

    Total for week so far £30.50 / £40

    I am buying coffee and lunch today. So I should come in just about on budget.

    Happy Friday everyone :j
