I seem to have about £4 left in my purse, although will probably need to buy a paper tomorrow so wont declare just yet, although its looking green.

Have had other spends this week but it has come out of savings as it has been purchases for the house and towards the DIY [STRIKE]we [/STRIKE] hubby has been doing.

Enjoy the Easter weekend all. I am so looking forward to some chocolate on Sunday.

Ah dang:o

Budget was blown yesterday. I am declaring red.

Sun - NSD
Mon - £8 (lunch with girls)
Tues £7 (lunch between meetings with colleagues).
Wed - NSD
Thurs - £1.55 (water&Paper, coffee) + £10 charity + £10 Mum for easter lunch
Fri - £14.99 - groceries + flowers for grave and then OH asked me to do his shopping £33.00 which I may never see.

Total = £84.54/£30

I really should have factored in Easter this week. Maybe OH will give me money for his shopping but I wouldn't ask as he pays for so much. Must do better next week:D

Please put me down for £40 for next week and fingers crossed and all that.

I'm declaring myself as in budget having spent £28.32-£30. I really enjoyed the challenge, and it did make me really think about what I was spending my money on, and whether I really needed something!

This week can I put in a budget of £50 children are off school, so no doubt will want money to go out!!
