  • Morning everyone

    Sorry been in and out a bit this week.

    Not been a good week for one reason or another. :(

    Sunday - NSD
    Monday - £8.38 groceries
    Tuesday - £27.69 groceries, £3.12 photos of bunny, (£40 petrol separate budget)
    Weds - £5 tip for hairdresser, £1 car park. (Hair appt separate budget)
    Thurs - £5.55 beer for hubby, (he paid for dinner so can't complain)
    Fri - £6.54 milk and beer for hubby!!! :D I also went out for my maternity leave leaving do and spent lots. I was only going to have a cheap meal and then decided what the h***!! So another overspend week. However I topped my spends up with leftover birthday money (from January) £28.80 spent.

    £86.08 / £75

    Well considering I haven't needed to do my usual top up shops this week, :( I have still managed to overspend. Ooops. :eek:

    But I know I need to reign it in from now, but then I don't really have lots of big spends coming up hopefully.

    We're out to Mothercare today so will set up the new thread later today.

    Well done for the greens, onwards and upwards for us reds. :D

    ETO - I think you're allowed to overspend now and again. You've had a cr*ppy week and a blow-out to celebrate the start of your maternity leave sounds just about right :)

    I'm still green at the moment - heading off to my sister's grand national party this afternoon. Don't think I'll spend much but will update final tally for the week later. On an MSE note, I'm cooking a nice quorn chasni to take so that we don't need to order in takeaway later :A
