Well I'm red this week... I was at £97.99 but spent £13.55 today. Oooops. :mad: So £111.54 / £100
Went for midwife appt today and my iron levels are a little low so topped up on iron rich foods. But all's good otherwise.
Just booked a 4D scan for tomorrow!
oooops more spends.
Flyinggiraffe - well done on all the NSD's
MissE001 - I guess if you need shoes it's not all bad, not like you spent lots on goodies and treats.
Hope everyone is well.
We'll be red together Beth

Everyone sounds like they've had a good week. Even those who have gone over budget it looks like it was for good reason

Today I spent a pound as my boss put it "to wear your own clothes to work for Red Nose Day" lol. He meant casual wear, obvs.
So I have spent £11 this week, but I always go mad on Saturdays!0 -
