£49.60 / £50 just made it this week. Thought it was going to be a struggle this week but just kept it under. Will go for £20 next week as that's pretty much what's left in my account until payday. But dont have much planned.

Have a good weekend everyone. We've just got a quiet one planned as hubby goes away soon for 6-7 months so just enjoying each others company.

Can I join in this pledge if it starts from today?
I am aiming to spend noe more than £40. It is a bank holiday weekend and a friend's birthday on Sunday but no drinking for me.

Abundant: congrats on your orange week!

Hi floella the challenge for this week is coming to an end with the new one starting on Sunday. However you can adapt it to fit you and your budget/ lifestyle. Most of us go from sun to fri/ sat. Good luck with your budget.

Spent £5 yesterday, the change went in pot, that left me with £32.09, went for a meal, which cost £28 but left £2 tip and spent £2 to top up my oyster as i had a bit of money on there, i made it with 9p to spare lol, next week will be a quiet one, i'm pledging £50 next week, only because £30 of that will be for my zumba class which is for a bulk pass of 10 lessons, i use 1-2 a week, so worth it, full price is £6 a class, so this way is very mse So i will really be working with £20, need to buy the 12 months supply of hayfever tablets for just under £5 will do that tomorrow, can't think of anything else i need. going to try my best next week to come under budget.
