    Hi

    Did quite well this week budgeted £20 and came in at £16.24 :j . So going for £20 again next week. Think I will do what others have suggested and put the left overs in a tin and then I know what i have saved at the end of the year and can treat myself or little one to something.

    well last week i set a budget of £20 which was a bit tight since i spent summit like £17 minutes after, but very pleased to say i only ended up 4p over the budget due to a friday morning fry up! so it could have been worse!

    well i did my food shop on saturday £15.16 but that inluded £8 on booze (only half is gone!). went out last night and spent a whopping £12! such a cheap night out i am! today i spent 84p in asda on some lunch/treat bits.

    left in my purse is £5.85...i'm hoping to still have the £5 at the end of the week...but that's my budget anyway £5.85, so i'm gonna fire it into my sig to keep track...

    good luck everyone, keep the :D on!

    Ever wonder about those people who spend £2 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backward.

  • Thanks for starting this up LA, has anyone heard from Moozie? Feeling a little anxious about her absence now.

    My budget for last week was £30 and I totally blew it, I don't know how much by either as I fell of the wagon.

    So a big slap on the wrist for me and I'm setting my budget this week at £30.
