Weekly Spend Challenge W/C 9th February 2014

DD265

Hi all!

I was green last week, but I have no idea what to set as a total this week (I'm off work, dangerous territory) so I'm just trying to be good and will follow you all without setting a budget.

Top up shop cost me £25.67! List consisted of bread, milk, butter oatcakes? MrT sure knows how to get money out of suckers like me. It's those coupons he sends that say x amount off £20 and you think I don't need much, it will cost less than that. But once you are in his lair then things just jump off the shelf into your basket cos they have pennies off! Grrrrr. Must do better next time. On the plus side I did get a couple of ys items for freezer;)

Total so far £40.67/£31.00:eek:

Bye for now
