  • And here is my update:

    I pledged £75.

    In reality, I spent £103.39 :eek:

    So that'll be me in red and on the naughty step for a while then!


    This week I am budgeting £60 which includes the groceries I wrote a cheque for yesterday. I will update signature in a moment.

    As for today, I am hoping for a no spender. I need some vegetable oil but that can probably wait till tomorrow.

  • Hello all,

    My budget last week was £50.00p and I spent £42.95p :D

    My new budget for this week is £20.00p. I am hoping I will have many NSD as I still have a few weeks left until payday. I will be having my haircut and coloured on Saturday (approx £70) but this is already budgeted for so won't include it.

    Have a good Sunday all

    Hello Moozie and all, :hello:

    Last week was the third week I've tried this, but the first two weeks I failed miserably! However, this week I kept within my budget of £40 and only spent £15 :T :T :T but I was staying at my mum and Dad's for the week, so that's why really!

    This week, I'm budgeting £40 again, this is to include my food, but not the two birthday presents I have to buy (which would more than wipe out a £40 budget). I've already spent £11 in Sainsburys today.....:( so I have £29 to last me til Friday.

    Good luck everyone

    I tell you, I'm coming back as a cow...

    Spends today:

    Observer £1.80 (seduced by the amusing headline "Cameron admits: I was dope at Eton" - then re-read it once home to reveal "Cameron admits: I used dope at Eton". Can't help feeling it's a ploy to make him look interesting...)

    Jam donuts with fresh cream (for breakfast) 99p

    Weekly challenge - £10 left in purse until payday (Thursday) so that's what I'm sticking with.

    Have a good week, all!

    I see the catarazzi have been at it again...

    Totally agree about Cameron but the fact remains: he's not interesting.

    This side has not been playing ball today :(

    Was going to be a NSD but bought wine (3 for a tenner offer though) as had a shocking day.

    Will come back with a target budget for the coming week. Will have to also put aside some postage money for Ebay items though - have a little pot for this but not sure how much it'll all come to.

    The catarazzi love it at your place, Mooz. Your OH even brought them biscuits and cocoa this morning when he'd finished waiting on you!

    Cameron - he's even nicked the name off Ms Diaz in an effort to make himself appear more glam. Tut tut.

    Agreed about on here today. How's a girl meant to avoid housework when the thing keeps going off? :confused:

    The day he's revealed as a cross-dressing crack fiend is the day I might raise an eyebrow.

    So no danger of my Botox coming under fire then.
