    Am not doing very well this week! Ended up spending over £15 on Sunday, had to get a prescription for 8.75 on Monday. Tuesday I ended up buying bits of things I didn't need. Yesterday I manages a NSD, but today I will need to get petrol. Argh!

    This week went completely up the wall - I think I've spent around £60 this week!!! Out of a target of £35. Not good!

    Only have £25 to last me until the 15th now, but I should be OK..

  • Well I have finished the week on £10.15 / £20. :j

    Of the £9.85 left, £6.50 will go into baby ETO's money box. He saves £2 coins and 50ps. :D
    £3 will go into my sealed pot and the shrapnel will go in my car parking money bowl. :D so that's £20 spent really. :D

    Hope everyone's had a good week.

    I'm going to try and set up the next thread now but will abort if babba wakes up and i have my parents and sister round tonight so if it doesn't get done, will do in the morning.
