    Hey all... Managed another GREEN week being super frugal!

    £0.00/£7.00

    I had my cupboards pretty well stocked, but resisted buying anything on top. In addition I got a £60 TESCO giftcard free for changing my broadband provider which has paid for petrol to/from work. Looking forward to next week's challenge!

    I am pledging I will not spend over £10.00 next week!

    Keep up the good work everyone... Every 1p saved is a 1p off debt and a step however small towards financial freedom!!!

    :)

  • Absolutely rubbish again this week :eek: - £72.16/£50 so well over. At least last weekend I was away so had an excuse; the only excuse I have this week is a 14 year old DD:rotfl::rotfl: I actually only spent £9.98 on myself from that amount (2 x bottles of rose wine, which was half price in Mr T's).

    Heyho, better luck next week I hope. Mind you it is DD's birthday on Friday and with half term too, not holding out much hope :D
    When you were born, you were crying and everyone around was smiling. Live your life so at the end, you're the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying!:rotfl:
