Ok I'm going to include everything this week I need to get a lot of things that I don't get every week or even every month so it will be a lot. Monday I will need to get petrol but I should earn £20 cutting my friend's mum's hair so I will use that and not count it. Tuesday I'm going to a free toddler group in the morning and a friend's house for a cup of tea in the afternoon, but am doing an online food shop in the evening, last time that was £83 this time my limit is £75. Wednesday I am doing a wholesale type bulk buy shop for nappies, toiletries etc that I do occasionally, last time this cost me £122! this time my limit is £110. On Friday it's pay day and I will get dog, rabbit and fish food for the month setting £35 limit for this. On Saturday night I'm going to an event in London for world aids day, my ticket is payed for and food and drinks on the table are included so I'm not taking any money, I am driving so will probably need another £30 petrol. Sunday I need to get things to go in DD's advent calender, Christmas cards for DD and DH and a few Christmas presents so setting a £30 limit for this. So a total of.....

Sorry but can I be a total PITA and change my budget:o

Had put £0 down for fuel (haven't driven for 6+ weeks) but I've now got to go to the Nurse on Friday.

DM is having to come & take me to hospital appt on Thurs & don't want her coming up twice and Drs is 15 mins away so I've decided I'm going to drive ..... I need to start trying to get out & about a bit.

Car's been sitting for 6+ weeks & desperately needs a run - and fuel as she was practically empty when left:eek: so will fill up and refill my fuel can (which typically I'd just used).

I also have absolutely no idea what the price of fuel is atm as it's been so long since I've bought any so have guesstimated!

So ...... amending budget to:
Fuel £40 - car + 5L can
Groceries £40 - have a £4 off £40 spend @ Mr T
Storage tower £25 - DM going to town so will collect for me
Misc £7
£112 please

Evening all

2 x NSD's for this challenge so far this week.

Spends yesterday but on groceries for a mexican night that i put on for my mum, dad, sister and her partner.

Going for a spa day tomorrow, its paid for, but i am sure i will add a fruit smoothie and cream tea, but that will be from my treat budget.

Just waiting for BT to call as my internet has been playing up for two days now. :mad:

Have updated the first post, and dont worry about changing budgets anyone.
