    Can I join please?

    I'd like to go for £5 as this for me really will be incidental spends, i.e. magazines, post, birthday cards, chocolate when it all gets too much..!

    I really need to get a handle on my spending and try to throw some money at my debts.

    Oh poot- mum let slip that the £10 I found in my handbag last challenge was hers, - she snuck it in when I was paying for dinner. Bit miffed that she wouldn't accept a free meal off me TBH.

    On the other hand, Asda let me exchange two tops that I'd bought in a mad shopping spree and never worn. Not the cheapest food as it was a tiny asda but it was worthwhile.

  • NSD for this budget, did have some grocery spends, and popped £5 in the tin for a poppy.

    Have a good week everyone.

  • I spent £19.85 yesterday on family day out to the cinema. Not bad really when you consider the cost of everything associated with going to see a film.
    No doubt there's lots more spending to come.
