The week so far for me is
Mon NSD
Tues 3.86 begrudgingly bought dh some throat meds;)
Weds NSD
Thurs NSD
Fri NSD
Wa hoo! I did buy my mum something she'd been after today, but that doesn't count as she's paying me back, but I had to think twice about what my debit card pin number was! Can't be a bad thing!
Unfortunately dh has sent £40 on plumbing bits, and various children's activities, so frankly it's a good job I have barely spent anything!

Hi All,
Ok...
My disastrous end of week total is: £195.69/£20.00
I think that makes my week RED
Thanks for all your support this last week - it meant a lot. Am determined to get back on track now - and somehow - will recoup my losses through hard work over the coming few months.
Next week's pledge is £40.00 please.
Thanks
⭐ DEBT FREE : 18/02/2025 ⭐

Morning everyone.
Fri - Ventured into our local market in my lunch hour. Got some courgettes, carrots, tomatoes, parmesan, feta and eggs. £9.61 spent (50p put into the savings as think the woman either gave me 9p too much or because I used to work with her she knocked a little bit off for me)
Total spending for the week: 45.12/£70.00 (£25.39 put into the savings). Which means for the first time ever I am orange as I have finished the week with 48p more than when I started
Will put myself down for £70.00 again next week.
Have a good weekend everyone xxxWSC 13 -14 2 10 -
I'm pledging £100 again this week. Might be a bit trickier as I have £30 Beavers fees to pay out so we'll see how things go.
Happy weekend to everybody!!! xxLooking for a fresh start0 -
Really tight week for us this week (well 9 days actually as its payday on 21st!) and after the big budget allocated to last week we have only £30 left for this week - thats for all the usual; petrol, groceries and misc. Ive been through the freezer and cupboards and shouldnt need much in the way of groceries. Im hoping I can limp along with just a little petrol, and DH will pay for his own.
Grocery shopping today, then aiming for NSD's until Thursday when its £3 for DS's kickboxing class. Not sure how thisis going to work out but....im pledging £30 for this week please ETO.0 -

Evening all! Had a good day today
Spent £5 for dog training class but my mum paid as she owed me a fiver. = £0
Then went to sainsbobs for a few bits and used £5 worth of nectar points so i only had to pay £5 for my shopping. =£5
THEN i sold another xbox game on ebay for a fiver and i sold my old phone for £35!! = £40 made!
Granted the money is in my paypal account and i'm going to try and pretend its not there.
sooooooooo my overall for todays spends was £5 (but i also made £40 :cool:)Looking for a fresh start0
