Succeeded in a no spend day, by remembering I had left bubbly and milk in the fridge at work, and wine and chocolate at my Mums. So a quick drive and no spends!
Previously I would have just gone and bought more.When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0 -

Hello everyone,
Long term lurker here! My New Years resolution is to finally creep out of lurkdom and join in. I often join along with the challenge by myself but I think it's time to get stuck in properly now as I've got some big money saving plans for 2016. Happy New Year to you all. I can't wait to see how we all get one. Please can you put me down for £200 for the month? That's for myself, DH, DS(10), 2 old cats and a small dog! All food and toiletries.. Bring it on!January Grocery Challenge £34/£200
