    Okay had a bad few weeks so I need to get back into the habit of a spending diary and being disciplined.

    I have £20 in my purse and that has to do me to 31st March so i am setting a budget of £10 for this week.

    I dont need anything at all (except some groceries and petrol but thats a seperate budget). So this is just personal spending.

    I will be good, I will be good

    I'm aiming for a £10 spend again.

    Week before last i was on a business trip with a painfully slow internet connection to i didn't post my total, but spent just over my £10 target. magazines were my downfall.
    Same business trip meant i had a horrible spend last week, but will be able to claim some of it back on expenses.
