    If it's anything like here MissE, you might struggle more because they are all sold out! Tesco were moving the shelves down as well and condensing everything which I take to mean that they won't be restocking.

    I made my OH's eggs (which meant that I got to eat the left over chocolate, and I made sure there would be left over chocolate :D) but he hasn't bought mine yet.

    I won't be spending tomorrow so I'm going to declare

    £15/£15 plus I made money earlier in the week.

    Pledging £15 for next week as well.

    Sorry for my lack of posts this week. It has been truely mayhem! I spent all the £60 i had in my wardrobe, BUT then i got a cheque through the post for £60 from Take a Break for my little post in the magazine.

    So i ended up back at the beginning if you want to say, just £60 less to go in my savings :(

    Anyways im going to miss next week as i have funds all over the place, kids off school and all 3 of them needing new shoes, days out. Wouldn't even know where to start and set a budget, so having at least this next week off :)

    Hope you all have a good week :)

    I've still have to work out last week spends :o

    So far I've spent none of this weeks budget :j

    I have finally worked out last weeks spends which were £4.80 / £100 we went to lots of free places including museums & galleries, we did spend lots of money but that is from other budgets, mainly groceries (ate out every day ooops) and presents.

    This week I have spent nothing of this weeks money :j so its a purple week

    Next week I would like to pledge to spend no more than £5, I had been thinking of taking the children to the cinema but granny rang earlier to ask if she could take them :D

    ETO thank you for running the thread it helps keep me on track :A
