Next week I will be pledging £70.00 but will finish the challenge on Thursday as I will be traveling to Leeds after I finish work but probably won't be putting totals up until next Saturday.
Have a good weekend everyone xxxWSC 13 -14 2 10 -
Evening everyone
£7.78 spent today, taking me into a big fat red. £21.22 / £10
Did manage a couple of NSD's in the week.
Will pledge £17 for the next week, havent got loads on, going out for a meal on Weds, will only need to buy drinks as the meal is paid for by work. Was supposed to be off Thursday so potential spendy day however i am now going into work to do some interviewing. So risk of spending reduced.
I may set up next week's thread tomorrow mornng as i am shattered and stuffed from the chips i've just eaten. I'll see how I feel in a bit.SPC 18 Target £200 /0
