Sun - 99p (song on iTunes)
Mon - £6.21
Tue - Earned £4.93 from eBay sale
Wed - NSD

So even tho I spent over my £5 budget I earned back some money from selling an item on eBay bringing my total left for the week at £2.73...
I dont think thats gonna buy 5 easter presents.

Also re: the whole thing with payments not showing up on your account until later- I totally hate that! I normally go to a cash point and get cash out before going back to buy an item.

Super feel good points for this:
1. extra exercise
2. time thinking if I actually need an item
3. handing over 'real' money makes it seem more real
4. it shows up on your account straight away.

Morning all Sorry i have been Awol! Been manic busy down the school with all the easter bits we have to do by lunch time today.

I am not sure bit by bit of what i have spent my money on this week as i have been spending my own plus schools money for bits for disco, easter hunt. But i do know i am still within my £40 target, but only have a few pennies left of it.

I will count it all later and see where i stand. Can chill after today But then have my 3 babies at home for 19 days So maybe not that much chilling can be done

Well, I blew my budget today, but I don't mind.

I could have got the Gap jeans for less than £30 but I went into the Ralph Lauren shop before I went into Gap and bought my yet to be born nephew some clothes. I spent £37.50 in there. I also spent £15 on dinner :eek:

Sunday - £6.70
Monday - £8.79 (SW, a raffle ticket, some hi-fi bars and paracetamol)
Tuesday - NSD :j
Wednesday - £3.15
Thursday - £52.50

Total £71.14/£50.00

Oh well, at least I didn't buy the jeans as well :cool:

Hi!

Was doing so well until I spent £9.68 on 2 books I had pre-ordered and completely forgot about! DOH!

Sun ~ NSD
Mon ~ NSD
Tues ~ £9.68
Wed ~ NSD
Thu ~ NSD
Fri ~ NSD
Sat ~ I'm hoping for a NSD.

I'm working from 6pm Sat to 7am Sunday morning so am staying in till I have to leave for work. Don't know if I'll be able to update Sat or Sunday (will probably be asleep lol) so can I please pledge £10.00 again for next week and declare £9.68 for this week. If it changes at all I'll update it, if that's ok. Am hoping it doesn't lol!

Thanks so much ETO

Have a great easter everyone!

Cheers
Casper
