    Had a great NSD today - took lunch into work so no spending there...even went for a walk with hubby, to blow the cobwebs after dinner...


    so £40 still in purse.... xxx
    Sell £750.00
    Jan-feb-march - 150.00


  • Can I change mine to £15 as I just realised we're counting yesterday and we visited the Christmas markets then so need to include my purchases there into the amount. Meaning I've already spent 12.30, Train tickets £4.60
    Biscuits/Cakes £2.50
    Baubles for the kids £3.40
    Hand wash (xmas present) £1.80 (should have been £5, but had a gift card and discount)

    I need £2 if I go to both Mum's and tots groups this week so left with 70p.

    NSD as the money I have spent today has been on Christmas gifts/food and that's from another budget :D
  • Oh pants, overspend at the weekend (too many nice things in Camden!)

    I've literally got 13.46 until payday, so that's my budget.

    Monday: £2.30 bus to work
    Tuesday: £1.98 toiletries

  • Monday - NSD
    Tuesday - £3.85 on my vice of BOGOF coke from c00p.
  • Well NSD to report up until 7pm this evening and then unfortunately the washing machine is beyond repair so off to the shops we go and £349 later we have a new one!!
    Not going to include that in this weeks challenge as it would totally blow it but it does mean that I do need to continue to he extra careful from now until the end of the year. Thinking of doing the monthly challenge for December as well:eek::eek:

    Still at £16.10/£40

    A spendy day yesterday:
    • £1.40 on popcorn (I'm addicted)
    • 49p on milk for tea at work
    • 90p on hot water to make said tea
    • £4.20 to post a birthday parcel to my friend. Still cheaper than Royal Mail!

    Today I'm off to London for work (been up since 4.50am and sitting writing this on the train!) and although I have packed a lunch I imagine there will be spending on caffeine by the end of the day. It's a long day trip on the train from Scotland!
