    Had a big spend day today but all from the joint account lol I love my husbands pay days! Did main big shop and got some Euros ready for May :)

    But from my spending point of view i have had a pretty quiet day :)

    Spent a while down the school helping out, then cleaned my car. Would of had a NSD but my hoover packed in, so i had to pop to Morrisons and pay £1 for their hoover just to finish my car off.

    Sun - £8 Sandwich stuff for kids
    Mon - £15.10 random spends on bits! ( im also going to add on £20 for the vibration plates. Was going to budget from another pot, but will take it from this week :)
    Tues - £3.52, TV mag, Lottery and 1 scratchcard!
    Wed - £1 Morrisons car vac!

    £47.62/£60
  • Hi guys, i'm back! :)

    I haven't been feeling very well over the last week or so. (General illness)
    And to top all that off, I have wayyyy overspent so i'm needing to rein it in again. I dunno if it's too early to say my pledge for next week yet?
    £5.00
    I literally have £5.00 available to spend each week for a month or I will go overdrawn. Sucks.

    Hope everyone else is okay.

    It's becoming a bit of a challenge in itself to not spend anything during the week. I almost daren't say it, but I think I'm becoming tight with my money. :D
