Weekly Spend Challenge w/c 29th April 12

elsiepac

Well hellooooo everyone!

I'm so sorry I've not been around this week. Work has been pretty horrible, everything is basically back to how it used to be so haven't been very happy there in the last few weeks.

However, I mentioned my plan last Sunday, and I'm please to report I've acheived the first part of it! Hence my hideously HUGE overspend!!!

So... I'm moving out of my parents on 2 June!!!

I moved back here at the end of March 2010, planning for about 6 months, and here I am 2 years and 2 months later!!! :rotfl:

So I'm really pleased... it's into a large house share in the place I wanted to be, and I have a big double room with an en suite... guess how much all inclusive per month? £450!!! That's rent, bills, utilities, sky, council tax, everything!!! Anyway, paid my deposit the day after I viewed it which was the same as a months rent, so hence am now quite broke! As usual!

Happy days!

Thank you Karen, Africa was absolutely AMAZING! Brilliant trip and had some wonderful experiences and a lovely wedding at the end. :beer:

First post is up to date, I'll hand over to pp for next week, and I'll pledge £undecided! please. :cool:

Enjoy your long weekend everyone!

Woo hoo LC, congratulations on moving out. I bet you cannot wait. Sounds like you have a good deal too.
Sorry things are rubbish at work again though.

£23.78 spent out of £24. Pleased i got a green week. :j:j

Setting £20 for next week, nothing really planned, so hoping to have most of that left.

Enjoy your weekend all.

Next week I plan to spend no more than £5

Way to go Ladymay on your tip and congratulations LC on moving out

Decluttering

I failed miserably this week, I was doing so well but then I got offered a job interview and I needed to buy something appropriate to wear for the interview...I guess it will be a good investment if I'm successful in the interview, if not I can wear it again for other interviews!

I'll give it another go next week, I think I could've done it otherwise.

Morning all,

I'm red . I had to spend £40 at podiatrist which wiped out the weekly budget in one go.

Never mind - I'll try again next week with £40.
Thanks
