    Ah ha! This is exactly the sort of challenge I need for my first week - Please may I join in? :)

    I will start tomorrow as I have just seen this sooo...

    Monday Work - LSD - Need Milk at home & owe work tea float contribution £3
    Tuesday -Work - NSD
    Wednesday - Work - NSD
    Thursday - Work - NSD (But this is grocery day and I am gonna try to keep it under £60 instead of my usual £70)
    Fri - No work & DH payday


    Hmmmm so I think I should have a weekly spend of £3 and four NSD's... I think that sounds somewhat over ambitious but I genuinely can not think of anything I will need to get :/

    Total £3!!

    Well here's how it actually happened...

    Mon - £1
    Tues - NSD
    Weds - £2 work tea float
    Thurs - NSD (Groceries in at £50ish after a £12 refund)
    Fri - All went wrong! Spent £20 - Long story but will try better next week!

    DMP Journey starts April 2016. Time to take control once and for all!
    Unsecured Debt £20583/£20583 Emergency fund £0/£1000
  • Lost it this week! Visit to vet resulted in some not so good news and difficult decisions to make so took DD to cafe for lunch as distraction to try cheer us up a bit. Still under the £25 target though( if don't count vet bill...)
