Sun - £2.50 papers
Mon - NSD
Tues - NSD
Wed - £6 camera
Total = £8.50/£400 -
So I've finally totted up my total from last week, I'm well into the red on £164.36/£100 :eek::eek::eek:
AND I'm on £17.09 already this week, so my target will be £20.00 until Sunday. I have no evening plans so there should be no reason to spend any more...
It seems I keep going from red to green to red to green, more discipline is definitely needed 2019 Aim: Save £10,000

Well I was in the red last week total spend was approx £25 but I am feeling positive as even though I overspent I was a lot more careful and aware of what I was spending!
This week I set my budget for £20 again. So far I've spent £10 and all in mr T's again so I REALLY need to organise my food budget! No plans tomorrow or Friday & meal planned from freezer so should stay within budget!Married my wonderful husband February 2013!:happyhearI want to wear my beautiful wedding dress everyday- it would make shopping so much more fun, I mean, people go shopping in their pyjamas these days.......Must STOP spending!!!Proud to be dealing with my debts!0 -
