    Quick update as this week i've completely screwed up. My shopaholic side totally took over and i'm really annoyed with myself. Blew our weekly budget by lunchtime on Sunday. Gonna write this week off and start again on saturday with my usual pledge of £100. Hope you are ok and staying on track guys - think i've overspent for all of you this week :eek:
    Looking for a fresh start

    Well i was £20 over my £25 budget by lunch time today BUT i managed to sell something on Ebay and after all fees i had a £55 profit. So that puts me back to the start + £10 up :) Obviously i am not spending it, just putting it aside till good news comes through about my Grandma :) Ooh and sold a BNIB set of Lego which was put away for Christmas, but needs must and i need the cash at the moment, so will have to start Christmas buying again soon! That was £25 profit too.

    Was -
    £45/25
    Now -
    £0/£25
    £35 up from sale profit :)

    Hope you all have had a good day.
