Thank you Coxy - I am glad the July thread is available as I have been missing in action for so long I need desperately to get back on track!! Please put me down for £200 for July!

Thanks for starting the thread, I missed the June challenge.

I'm aiming for £350 for me, OH and two adult 'children'. We've recently bought a new house which needs a lot of work, so now have debts for the first time in years. My 'secure' job has also become under threat, so we need every penny we can scrape together to become as debt free as possible.

I'd like to join in for July please. Spends over last 6 months ranged between £80 and £150 for one adult (although OH does regularly drop in at mealtimes :rotfl:) and income will be dropping in October although as yet don't know by how much.

Please put me down for £100 for July as a realistic starting place and will reduce over next few months from there.

Please put me down for the usual £360.
We are away for two weeks this month but need to stock up freezer for daughter who's staying at home and leave some cash for her to buy fresh food stuff.

THIRZAH

Please put me down for £200. We were on holiday in June so I didn't do the challenge but hope to get back on track in July.

Well i have been away from this board for over 3 years and it is soooo time to come back. I have got to ease myself back in to it all so going to start in July's Grocery challenge my aim is to get down to £400 this month fingers crossed i can do it its going to be hard as 2 adults and 3 teenagers (all eating me out of house and home), shopping is nearer £600 a month

Thank you for the thread!

Welcome to July all...and welcome back Angelraesunshine. :j

We're in again. Managed a corker of a June, but not shifting our budget too much as it was very unusual.

£310 for July please.

First shop done today, so about to update signature.

Can I join please. Put me down for £200. Need to work on lowering it as it's only me and OH

Cappella

I'm in again, after bowing out in June. Staying at £250 please. I'm starting on the 26th June, as that's when my pension goes in and will run through to the 26th July so that's a five week month.
Nothing extra planned so feeling hopeful I'll make it this time.
