    Hi all

    I'm over budget this week so big fat red for me.
    I know where I'm going wrong (popping into shop for 1 thing and buying 10), so back on the straight and narrow next week:)

    Well I seem to have lost track completely with my budget this week so I am going to say I did not achieve my target of £30 and be more careful next week, I think I should stick to £30 for now until I get a handle on things grrrr I started off so well too.
    :) Been here for a long time and don't often post

    pp would normally set up the thread, she was away in America a week or so ago, so i just carried on posting here. I don't think she has been back on MSE for a while. It would normally be set up on a sat/ sun for the following week. I'll wait until tomorrow for next week's thread then try and set it up if not.

    That could be interesting. :rotfl:

    And you're not dumb.
