Had a couple of spends over the weekend, and that has left me with £20 to last til the end of next week. I use a separate purse for my food budget, and I'm pretty sure I borrowed some money from my main purse, but I can't remember how much, so I can repay myself! I'll probably technically be a few pounds over budget... Still, it's better than it used to be!
I usually have a target of £80, but gave myself £90 this month because it was a 5-weeker. With next week back to 4 weeks, I'm going to target £75 instead of £80, as I'd still like to bring my budget down a little. I'm targeting £65-70 as a reasonable amount for one person (sometimes feeding 2!)0
