    I've been avoiding this site because I've gone off the rails a little, I've not used any credit but I need to get back on track before I go down the slippery slope again. So I'm budgeting £20 for this week and making full use of my spending diary.

    Good luck everyone. :T

    Spent £3 on netball subs.

    I mustn't have budgeted last week... getting all confused...

    It's turned out that my part time job of about 15 hours a week has ended up being nearly as many hours as my last full time job... and I worked 6 days in the past week. Still, the money is good... and instead of expecting about $500 for the fortnight, it's closer to $900. Just means my brains and bod are fried :rotfl:

    Anyway, even if I had budgeted last week I would have gone over, ended up for 2 days having coffee and lunch at work since I was so knackered I couldn't be bothered to make lunch. Don't worry though, even without a red name I feel guilty!

    Going to budget $20 this week. An increased amount because I'm earning more and also because it includes 2 bottles of wine for when both grandparents are coming to lunch on saturday.

    I would like to join too

    I would hope to only spend around £65 including tesco shop due on tiesday for £50 ish.

    Milk and bread £5
    Swimmiing lesson for dd £2.50
    Rest for stuff i can't think off now that usually come up:rotfl:

    I have decided to change my challenge a bit, i am going into tesco today so decided to get my bits there and have wrote a list, i think if i am right it should come in at about £20 to £25. I looked in the cupboards and need less than i thought.

    So i put my new challenge in at £45. :p
    You can touch the dust but please don't write in it !

    Would you like to speak to the man in charge, or the woman who knows whats happening?

    My budget is £60 for this week, £16 spent so far. Not too bad but I'm hoping to have a few low-spend days for the rest of the week!

    Hi! Think I posted my spend into last week's thread! I only spent £1.49, so still green! Same target (£10) for this week please!
    Resolution:
    Think twice before spending anything!
