Almost an NSD yesterday but decided to take advantage of the nectar points double up. Doubled up £15 and bought 4 bottles of wine and a small bottle of Prosecco for DH and me to have a glass each on Christmas Day came to £32.25 so my spends for 23/11 were £2.25 :T :beer:

Last day on the November challenge for me. I am moving into december tommorow.
I found £1.01 today just lying around on the pavement. Some people! I used it to buy a tin of kidney beans, a tin of chopped toms & a lovely fresh bread baton to go into/with our chilli tonight. Yum! And NSD technically

Spend at Tesc* today was £43.05.This should see me through to Sat. I might need milk and bread but that should still leave me with a little in the kitty to carry on to Decembers budget so I am a happy camper :j

Just updated sig. Tottering the near the edge and got a Tesc* order coming but do have a gift card to knock a bit off, so this should just bring me spot on target ... for now!

I'm going to declare my amount today and anything I spend from now on will go on December's total, as I have enough in to last the rest of the week.
I'm slightly over budget at 268.90 but not too worried

Hi everyone

Just back from a week at home, was great seeing everyone again went and got some bits and pieces yesterday, spending £13.89, so my total for this month is £39.53.I have more than enough to get me through the rest of the week so all being well I will stay under budget. I suppose I'm cheating a bit after having missed a week but I'm still delighted I managed to stay under £50! Hopefully I can do it again next month
