So far so good with total of £196.27/£200.00:j:j:j:j
No plans to go anywhere or spend anything tomorrow.
Need to have a careful think about what's required for next week......Busymumofthreeplusdog......
..............on a mission to curtail the spending and build up the savings
2015 NSD total - 50 -
So, my week ended up like this:
Mon - NSD
Tues - NSD
Weds - [STRIKE]£25 (friend's birthday [/STRIKE] - my friend was ill so it was almost a NSD - I used my m&s cafe vouchers with another friend and spent £2.50 on top
Thurs - [STRIKE]£50 present contribution plus night out[/STRIKE] - unexpected NSD as I was ill
Fri - [STRIKE]NSD[/STRIKE] - spent £10.35 on meds
Sat - £50 present for friend's daughter's birthday plus dinner and drinks - not sure if I will make this or not. I am much better now but look a bit of a mess so we shall see how I am tomorrow. This week might be lower spend than I thought but the same things will need to be bought/done at some point, so it isn't a 'proper' saving really
.
ETO - I had a lovely holiday, thank you. I just wish I could have brought the sun back with me
.
I think I can report a green week. I've set aside the present/dinner money so it is ready once those get rescheduled (I hope!)
Have a great weekend everyone and see you on the next thread
