  • ETO - sounds like your bunny has expensive tastes!!

    Well I've officially had a complete NSD!!!! No groceries even though I do need bread.

    I also got a freebie McD's latte to take into work this morning.

    Going to ebay some things on Sunday too.

    Yes you're right, he definitely has. He is so spoilt, cos he's my baby. But i really need to do something about the amount i spend on him, it is a bit ridiculous. I do normally get his veg with my food shopping but as i have pretty much blown that budget i am getting it out of my weekly spends.

    And well done on the NSD. :j

  • Budget blown this week!!!

    Bought myself a game, dvd and some stuff from Boots. Definite retail therapy as going through rubbish time at work, in my relationship and at home :-/

    Have to realise that ultimately am not going to feel better and that's not going to fix my problems or my debts.

    RED week: £159.77/£70.00

    Consequently have left myself with less this week. For W/C 23/09/12 am pledging £20.00

    Good luck everyone!

  • Discovered the service station near my office (3 minute walk) sells Krispy Kreme. Spent £3.95 on donuts for family.

    £3.95/£20.00

    Am cleaning the house today so fingers crossed I don't spend any more!
  • I spent £37.73 this week so under budget!x
  • £41.48 / £35 for this week, :( haven't been red for a while, and not happy about it. a week to go until payday, no money left and out for tea on Monday and need petrol too. i do know where i went wrong though.

    Have some pennies in savings left from what had put a side for car insurance. so will move £50 over and set £25 for next week for spends, will pick a cheap meal on Monday night. :D

    Popping into town on Friday for eye appt, but it is part of my contact lens plan so will be free.

    Next week I'm going to pledge £40
