  • Well, not technically a NSD as I bought an ice-lolly for £1.25, but I was clearing out my glovebox and found £1.62 inside, so still not had to break into the £10 note I took out on Monday.

    0/10 this week so far (I have a feeling Friday may get expensive)

    So whilst technically I've spent £10.96 from my £10.99 this week... I've also cheated like mad and taken money from other places... FAIL!!! I have to declare red., it's only fair! :eek:

    Well done to you guys... better than me... oh, and my news I was meant to hear by today hasn't materialised so not holding out much hope... bleurgh :(

    £4 yesterday on Zumba, and i still have 60p left, however like you LC i have cheated and used my card, which i have tried to justify to myself and i was going to add it into GC but then that budget is blown too this month. Aaarrrggggghhhhhh.

    Why have i been so bad this week. going to sit and look at my finances this evening and do some working out.

    So big fat RED for me this week. Can't even declare properly as i havent kept track, cos that way they weren't real spends. lol.

    Have a good day all.
