    Lovely NSD's �� Down in London visiting family - horses and silly hats tomorrow. But it's only small things like a tea or coke which all come out of my own budget.

    Another £170.82 added. Looks like I'll need to change my annual budget. I think it was a bit optimistic considering I now have 2 children both of which are in nappies and 1 of them on formula.

    I do have £110 in M&S vouchers to spend which will be spent on food, so that should help a little bit x

    February GC £26.68/£250

    Topped up my tonic water supplies today £5 for 15 bottles.

    By the way I am an retired turf accountant, fancied a play with Paddy Power on Saturday, up and down Sat/Sun ended weekend + £14, promised a friend I would take her for a hospital app Monday, chucked a quick wager on, winnings £97, withdrew it all before it was frittered away.
    Do I need it or just want it.

    Three consecutive NSD and given the reason was due to being too busy with work (self employed) not only meant I wasn't spending anything but more importantly I was actually earning something. Yay. DD is now home from uni and this is having an impact on our weekly spend. Old Mother Hubbard here again so the usual trip to Aldi, Homebargains and Poundworld tomorrow to replenish supplies. Hoping to keep the shop under £80 if possible. Will update tomorrow. Another positive money saving change has been far fewer takeaways/meals out so that's having a good impact on my purse. Let's hope I can keep it up!

    Spent £25 today. Looks like I am not going to,stick within my budget. Still I think I'm still doing better than before. Joining this challenge is helping me to focus so if I try it every month then eventually I might get to stay on track and within budget.

    Pamsdish......well done on the win....great stuff.
