Weekly Spend Challenge w/c 20 May 12

YORKSHIRELASS

Spent 90p yesterday on an ice lolly for DS - he chose the cheapest without me saying anything bless him!

And I forgot that the window cleaner had been and is calling tomorrow for his tenner so thats all my spends gone. Will update my final figure but so far its £25.20/£25.00.

I need to buy some milk today too and have already gone over the food budget by £38 which is not good.

Evening everyone

Declaring at £35/ £25, not a great week, but have had worse.

Think i shall set £10 for next week. Payday on Weds, so need to keep spends down until then.

Potentially have a night out on Fri, but if i decide to go i shall take the money from my wages. So will set the £10 for incidentals to get me through the week.

Enjoy the weekend everyone. I know i will. Haven't seen hubby for 2 weeks so looking forward to this weekend with him, and have a BBQ planned at my mum and dad's on Sunday. Just getting butterflies thinking about it. That is seeing hubby, not the BBQ. :rotfl:

Wow, what another gorgeous day! I've been up since 6 (unheard of for me on a weekend!) as it's been so nice - wish I could say I've been productive but I've only been working out money stuff, had breakfast and watched Time Team, and got ready for the day!

Hmm, my usual rubbish performance then!

I'll sort out next week's thread a minute and then have a think what I'll declare...

There's a big food festival on in Bristol today and tomorrow which I want to go to called VegFest - hoping I can persuade my friends otherwise I will just go on my own, don't want to miss out!
