Hi LJ!

I am still refraining from setting a budget due to the way life is at the moment, I'm still not knowing what is going to happen from one week to the next so....don't take it personally (from me I mean).

But my spends today were:

£29.63 on groceries and beers/chip & dip for taking to friend's house for footie. BF gave me £10 cash towards that though, afterwards.

£10 on a Chinese takeaway to celebrate some stuff!

Hi - can I join?

I've tried the unnecessary challenge...but can't stick to £10!:rolleyes: This is much better!!:T

My pledge is £30 - this doesn't include petrol, groceries etc...just general spending!

Wish me luck though...I'm meant to be going to Ikea tomorrow!!!!!! If I drive though, my mum will normally buy lunch, so as long as I can resist stuff there (except for kids cups/plates I intend to buy - only totalling £2) I shouldn't do too badly. Whenever I've been in the past, I've easily spent between £50-100!!!!!:eek:

By the way...spent £4.80 today paying for our daily newspaper delivery...have now added this to my budget...as it always catches me by surprise! At least it wasn't £25, as it has been before when we've not paid for a while!!!!!!:eek:

Hi,

I budgeted £30 last week and came in well under budget, so am going to try for £20 this week. Have so far spent £7.04 on groceries. Hope you all have low spend weeks
