    Hi,

    I have £115 in my purse and i'd like to pledge that please. Should come well under budget as dont have much planned this week/weekend but don't see the point in me putting it into my bank!

    Thanks.
  • ETO - i came in at 6.10/7 last week, i stretched that 90p like mad! lol

    a NSD on sunday, today will depend.... but tomorrow spendy spendy spendy, off to see a priest and hopefully celebrate rather than commiserate the news of being able to marry, where and when we want to! WOOOOOOOOO!
    IF YOU THINK YOU ARE SO CLEVER, THEN WHY ARE'NT YOU RICH?

    Hi everyone.

    I used to do this challenge religiously, but I've fallen off the MSE wagon lately. I need to get back on, so can I join in this week please?

    I know I'm a bit late, but I'd like to set my target at £50 please. Yesterday I spent £1.49 on a big bag of spuds, and thats my only spend so far.

    Good morning everyone! :wave:

    Checking in to report that yesterday was a spend day as motorcycle needs fixing so £58.36 spent! :eek: Then woke up this morning to find a bulb blown at home, so I'm desperately scabbling around in the spare change pot for enough loose change to by a new one (can't sit at home in the dark this evening!) in an effort to prevent today being a spend day too! fingerscrossed-v.gif

    Hope you are all managing to stay within budget - have a good day everyone! sunshine-012.gif

  • Evening everyone,

    Well after saying i wasnt going to spend much this week i am at £9.45 / £10 ooops

    Abundant - i would say you can spend birthday money as long as you spend it on something worthwhile and dont fritter it. I see this challenge as something to stop me wasting money, so birthday money, xmas money, lottery wins are all well within reason. And you need to treat yourself too.

    PS For when it comes. - Happy Birthday Abundant. :bdaycake: Have a good one.
