Apologies for the lack of update - I have had a recurrence of the chest infection that I've now had for over a month.

I've not actually spent a penny so far! Not been well enough to go out, and family/friends have covered any other expenses.

Domravioli - I hope you feel better soon. I had a chest infection before Christmas and it was just the worst.

DomRavioli - sorry you've not been feeling so well. hope you're over it soon.

Flyinggiraffe. - sorry to hear you've had a bad week. hope next week's a better one.

Mooomin - well done on the green week.

Verityemilia - hope little one feels better soon.

Munchin - probably a good idea not to include the kitchen. Although I'd have liked to have seen the overspend figures... :rotfl:

Mrs Cheshire - well done on all those NSD's. :j

Well I finished the week with 5p to spare. Went into town as needed a couple of birthday bits for people. Got everything I needed, also treated myself to a charm for a bracelet I got for Xmas, using Xmas money so allowed. Also yesterday whilst going through some paperwork I found some gifts cards, ended up with £41 for debenhams and £16 for next, very nearly threw them away. Who knows how long they'd been languishing under our bed... :rotfl: so got some underwear and socks.

Today's actual spends were on coffee so as to allow little one to stay asleep a little longer and then car parking.

So £4.95 / £5 Think I've had two of my lowest spend weeks ever. :j

Will aim to set up the new thread when baba has his morning sleep.

After managing NSDs for the whole week, I broke on Friday. Still within budget but spent £20 of the £50. I'm still in the green so I guess that is something though.:)

Hope things improve for everyone and that you have a great weekend!

BTW big thanks ETO and to everyone for this thread. It makes me much more aware of everything I spend. It is a bit scary how much I just fritter away in a normal week so the £20 is pretty good for me. :j
