Woo hoo....I have decided to join now too! I just wanted to join a challenge that was nice and simple to start with. And shall also be following the Monday to Sunday route.
For August this should be easy for me as I'm not working....September it will get difficult when I start my teacher trainning. However, I'm going to invest in a little cool bag and start making my own dinners for school when I go back! Yey!Reduction in daily mortgage interest since October 23 (new mortgage) - £2.36 July 25

Welcome to the challenge Twinklie....Wealth is not measured by currency0

Well i did well yesterday as i did not spend any of my £10. Fell off today as i went into town and passed by my local 'Rooks' butchers. Any of you lucky enough to have one of these in your town would know about the amazing smell that comes from these shops. So being a man and weak willed it lured me in and i spent £2.60. Mind you their cheese puffs are to die for(so i don't care) and they were lovely
Speak soon

Well a most uneventful day off for me
Had a day of lounging which my body and the bump/lump are both thankful for.
Mr T turned up so I got my biscuits (how they got on my order I'll never know!) and havent spent a penny!Wealth is not measured by currency0 -
Nothing so far this week, and I paid my credit cards (Amex & &More) so no interest on those either. Leaving the country in 5 weeks so it's save save save for that!...I like my coffee black, just like my metal!

£18 on train tickets :mad: I guess I'm going to have to work out a travelling budget too! I didn't spend anything else today tho
No spending tomorrow, but I'm going out thurs night... But I'm still doing my "get some friends" project, so that doesn't count as uneccessary!

Still have the crispy £10 still in my wallet and i have even been out with DD's to the park and fed the ducks. Going swimming today at the local sports centre which is re opening today after they had a new ceiling fitted after the earthquake we had down here a few months ago. The best bit is that it is free for today and they are having a pool party. No cost involved :j
Hope you all have a good day

I'm dead proud of myself. I went to Spar after dropping my baby off at the vets and bought some milk....which comes out of food budget. But I left with JUST MILK!
