    Back in again this week...aiming for £24 (what's left in my purse!!)

    Am going on holiday next Sunday...for once we've actually saved our spending money (£300:T !!) & are now putting £1 coins aside for the electric meter in the cottage (anyone have any idea what we're likely to need for 1 week?????)

    Won't be able to update on next Sunday's thread (as will be in sunny :rotfl: Bude) but will try to PM you PAP on Friday re: my total spends!!;)

    Hi pap,

    I budgeted £20 and think it was probably about that which I spent.

    We go to Portugal next Monday, so I've got a few last minute expenses - will say no more than £50 (fingers crossed)

    Hi PAP - sorry I am late, it's been mad here and I was without a computer all weekend.

    OK....the budget was blown to smithereens last week due to decorating costs and a bargain garden bistro set that we saw by chance and we bought. Been after one since last year but never bought one until now as we were waiting for the right one at the right price.

    So......last week I spent a horrendous £163.96. Not quite £30 then.

    However we have now completely overhauled the lounge and we have some nice furniture to sit on in our back garden when it is sunny....for the first time since we moved in, in 2003!

    Well you can't rush into these things can you?

    Anyway....this week should be much better I hope.

    My budget for non essential things (groceries & transport to work) this hectic week is: £80. :eek:If I can cut any off that I will be very happy.
