Hi can i join please Sunday is my shopping so not going to include my grocery shop. I would like to pledge £15. Stopping smoking tomorrow done a decent shop today would love lots of NSD this week.

I spent £6.14 at Tesco earlier; some soup for lunch, some bread to have with it plus bread for the freezer at work, some peanut M&Ms and drinks for the cinema which my OH paid for.

Sunday - £6.14

I am hoping for NSDs most of the week, but I will need to go to Tesco again at some point. Need to buy the chocolate to make OH's easter egg and given I didn't buy groceries for the horse today, he'll probably need something as well.

Ok, i was doing so well last week - but slipped into the red right at the end!

Friday - someone was leaving work, went out for lunch £10, then drinks after work got a bit messy! lol. There were lots of free drinks on offer so I only spent £15, then £7 on some dodgy food place after. Then went out for a fry up the next morning £12.18 to help cure the hangover!!

So final total for last week was:
£46.26/£30.00 :eek:

Plan:

Sunday - NSD

Monday - NSD
Tuesday - free cinema tickets so will need snacks £5
Wednesday - College £1 for drink
Thursday - Payday lunch £10, College £1 for drink
Friday - NSD
Saturday - Dentist £17.50

So going for £35 this week!

Weather is so horrid I didn't leave the house lol and resisted the temptation to spend any money online.

Have a good evening everyone!

Cheers

Evening everyone

I have updated your budget shinner.

Sun - £16.26
Mon - £1.20 car parking, £32.22 petrol :eek:

£49.68 / £40

Have cancelled tea for tomorrow as I just cannot afford it, which is unlike me as I would normally take money from a little I have saved, but conscious ill need all extra pennies for maternity leave.

I am also trying to get to payday with a little saved, so far £70 has been moved to a separate account.

Thankyou, I'm very determined to keep within my budget. :j
