I've budgeted £250 for food. Anyway did huge Tesco order & its coming to £90 but thats without the saving etc...

I will need fruit & veg & milk, bread through the month but not much else. I may lower the budget to £200. I have a healthy stocked panrty with flour etc etc but there are 2 adult & 2 kids here! I have def improved with the food bill since cooking from scratch!

See you all after work.

Be good :rolleyes:

Hi guys,

I've been a bit busy lately and haven't managed to log on for a couple of days, glad your all enjoying this challenge! I spent 90p on monday but have managed to avoid spending any since, so total unneccessary spend is 90p!

another 35p spent yesterday on crisps from the vending machine!!! BUT I went to ASDA last night and brought a 6 pack of crisps for 95p and will bring in a packet every day.

Took the money from the grocery budget

Got my weight watchers meeting today at lunchtime and i am a gold member so if I am within 5 lbs of my goal weight, I don't have to pay. BUT I think i wont be so I may have to spend £5.50!

Cancelled meeting a friend for an indian on saturday so I can keep with this challenge. Going to go to a friends house instead and chill in the garden with her.

Right then guy and gals I have to update you from yesterday.
When I got home from work I jumped straight into bed with instructions for DH, put a DVD on as you leave for work and told DD and DS to wake me up as soon as it finished cos we're off to the park.
12.00 they woke me up- Mummy we've made the picnic!:eek: :eek: :eek:
So I jumped (ok dragged myself!) out of bed and took out all the contraband goodies. Made their sandwiches and went to go. Picked up the cool bag and they'd put icecreams in it so I didn't have to buy any at the park:rotfl: .
We were at the park for 5 hours! and spent not one penny:o .
Left park and went to matalan to get DD a summer dress but they didn't have one that fits her.
I found a lovely dress that I had to try on and I bought it for £12. I also bought a cardigan 1/2 price for £8 i won't keep it unless it goes with strappy tops. I also found a top 1/2 price at £4. So £24 on clothes for me. DH just has to wrap them up for my birthday next Sunday. (and they're budgetted for).
Some git's hit my car and dented the bumper, I'm ironing this morning, tip and carwashing later and I must post a letter and get some suncream before I take DS to park later.
DD back at school and DS back to preschool tomorrow:j so when I've dropped them all off I get a whole day in bed. My posts may be a little deranged for next few days as I have 5 nights in a row now eeuurgh!
TTFN, Kaz.

Alright alright I just can't stay away! Didn't get to PO to pay in my 6p but I cleaned the car earlier and found 20p in it. So now I have 26p to pay in! I might have to spend it on a stamp so that I can post off my car insurance doofers. TTFN again!
