    aartisuk - I always find that doing these challenges is a HUGE eye-opener. I'm doing the grocery challenge too and how much I've already spent in four days is CRAZY.

    Well it's been a NSD for me, we haven't left the house today due to little man being under the weather. :( He's def on the mend now though. :o

  • More spends today, again I popped into the shop for muffins for lunch, and came out with muffins, crumpets, water, and some other snacks.

    Because baba is still unwell I'm not sure when I'll get to the shops for a 'big' shop so I picked some bits up today whilst my mum was round to watch little one.

    However I ate all the snacks today. Whoops. :D

    Think I spent £9 ish but realised I was overcharged 75p so my mums going to sort that for me tomorrow. Just checked and spent £7.48. With the 75p extra. grrrrrrrr. :mad:

    I did get to this payday with £20 left in my grocery/ petrol budget and £40 in my spends budget so pleased with that.

    £23.42 / £25
