Weekly Spend Challenge W/C 20th October 2013

mooomin

I have £7 left of my £20 budget I would have £9 left, but I got a £2 coin in my change, and that has to go in the pot :rotfl:

I'm working from home tomorrow, so any spends should be only from my food budget which isn't counted in this challenge.

Morning Everyone

Sorry ETO I didn't update on spends last week or set a budget for this week :eek: :eek:

A little unorganised at the moment

Hopefully will be more focused next week - although kids off school so not a cheap week .... Will still try and budget though

Will come on Sunday and pledge a budget for next week x
