  • Can I join? I would like to budget £15 for this week. This is the first time I've done this so I don't want to overwhelm myself. Today I've spent £1 and I'm hoping that the rest of the week will be rather cheap!
    Thank you competition posters!
  • Welcome hettiecaro and decluttering. :hello: Nice to have you along for the challenge. :D

    Decluttering - you can absolutely budget whatever you feel you will need for the week. There are no rights or wrongs. The challenge is just to help us think about what we spend and if we always need to buy the things we buy. Good luck and remember to pop back through the week and let us know how you're doing. :D

  • Happy Monday! Just checking in, yesterday was an NSD but spent £3 today on a visit to a toddler group with my 2 year old (well worth the spend!) so I'm currently £3/£20, the rest of the week should be NSD's though as I currently have no plans :) hope everyone is well!

    Thank you EverTheOptimist :)

    I know it's only 2.30pm but I'm going to declare today a NSD. I'm sitting at home, my credit card is in a different room to me and I will only be leaving the house again today to walk my hounds (who are very anti social and would not tolerate standing still long enough for me to look in a shop window). Fingers crossed it's still a NSD when I go to bed!

    £1/£15
    Thank you competition posters!
