I went and done the grocery shopping last night and it came to the grand sum of 58 pounds. So that leaves me with a whole 4 pounds left of my grocery budget til next wednesday!!!
Ah well i do think we have enough in the house and will prob only have to buy bread and milk, fingers crossed.
Also put 40 pounds diesel in the car so hopefully that will do til next wednesday.
Have not yet spent any of the 50 pounds entertainment budget.
Keep plodding on... have a good day allEmergency Fund 850 / 3000Debt free as of 30/5/2014 :jLBM MAR'11 total debt - 227050 -
A quick update as my new budgeting week starts tomorrow!
Diesel - 40 / 40 (and still some left in the tank :j)
Grocery - 75 / 70 and nothing left to buy for today :cool:
Entertainment - 100 / 50 :eek:mmm that is an estimate as i havent kept proper count. But that is not good.
I was on a girly night out on sat and blew my whole 50 budget on that alone!!
I estimate I spent 35 on eating out, and the remainder 15 on play stuff with the kids.

My Budget for the week beginning tomorrow is:
Diesel - 40
Groceries - 70
Entertainment - 50
I am out on thursday evening with the girls for an Indian. I hope it wont cost too much as it is byo, and i wont be drinking (much).
We shall see how i get on, but i must remember that only i can do it and if i dont there is noone to blame but myself.
I have to remind myself why i am doing this... I am going away on my hols at the end of this month, and i need all the money i can get for it!!
The big main reason i am doing all this is because i want to be debt free!! End of!!
