it will be hard but i will do it... this will then mean i can deposit over £100 into my savings account for my car... i will be attempting similler in march/april too :rotfl: any way i am chilling tonight and i am also going to pick up my cross stich again :rolleyes: have a lovely evening 0 -
I spent £7.50 on a skirt (which should have been £25 by the way :money:
) for my mum but it's on my colleague card so she'll pay me back when the bill comes.
So personally, I only spent £26.50 on petrol, which should last two weeks.
Didn't set a target last week, this week, erm £40 - I know it seems high but I have dentist Monday which is £15.50, and I'm on holidayNo longer using this account for new posts from 20130 -
Hi... can anyone join this challenge?
I've been pretty rubbish with general spending over the last couple of weeks. Bought some software for the pc, and spent £45 online in Boots (did get triple points tho, and free delivery:o....). If you don't include budgeted items (food, bills, debts etc), I reckon £50 Sun-Fri for me and my OH together is a good place to start... ond he's out on Wed night :beer:'We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars' - Oscar Wilde0 -

moozie it looks like we have a LOT of company....party at mine! :rotfl:
it seems that most of us dfw's are having a hard time sticking to our budgets at the moment (or ever if your me!), maybe we need to find some challenge or form of motivation to help....is this just the winding down of the festive season???
me, i'm about to blow my nsd, but it's not from this weeks budget...i'm about to finish off the big list of things i set myself to do and i've still got nearly three hours till 24 starts. it's not enough time for the gym and it's too dark for the beach (unless i wanna get mugged or run over!) so i'm thinking about a walk to asda (still best part of an hour) and i'll spend the £1 i have left in my purse from last week on some munchies for me and [STRIKE]jack[/STRIKE] all the naughty dfw's...0 -
Well I've spent £2.10 today on a much needed latte. it was a treat, but after the week i've had, i thought i could justify it. I'm going to aim to be under £20 this week. I really need to!

Yikes! If I saw the right video - that was upsetting!
But the catarazzi assure me that you have a great career doing thisshould you ever feel the urge...
Checking in - last week wasn't a strict "weekly" spend as I only estimated from Monday to Wednesday. As I still had around £5 in change left on Wednesday night, that's a £5 spend.
Same for this week please - a tenner!
Spends today: £21.56 on Asda shop for the entire week (including cleaning bits and bobs). So, technically, no need to spend anything this week.
But since when did "technically" actually account for much?
Break over! Back to what I was doing...
Have a good week all.:eek: What if the hokey cokey is what it's all about? :eek:Official "Bring back Mark and Lard NOW! or else (please)" Member 160 -

Think I spent round the £10 mark.
£10 this week for me as well
Good luck all

Hi, this is my first post but I have been reading for a while I would like to join if I may and would like to try to spend no more that £15.
I have just done my shopping yesterday so hopefully won't need to buy anything for a few days anyway x0 -
Evening moozie - make way for me on the naughty chair now
