  • My month will be from the 30th September until the 30th October, I'm away on holiday for 11 days so that will reduce my budget a bit.


    Will set my target at £220 please.
    JAN - £208.56/£250 NSD-8
    FEB - £121.51/£200 NSD- 1
    Penny a day challenge #001: £200.79/£667.95
  • Same as last month £220 pls, I will meet target one day
    I will lose 2 stone by this summer!!!!!!
  • I am going to try to reduce mine in October to £225. Probably could go lower but I need to restock on meat for the freezer so baby steps.
    All that clutter used to be money
  • Hi please may I join again.

    I used to do this but have lapsed. I need to get some order back into my shopping and meal planning and need to use up what I have already got in my freezer and food cupboard.

    At the moment I will try for £50 weekly, but this may have to rise when I restock after I have used up my current stocks.

    Anyway, this is for me on my own and should be plenty :)
  • Hi everyone.

    Please may I join.
    I used to do this challenge several years ago, and didn't do too badly. However things have changed, I now have two little mouths to feed as well as two big ones. :D

    My budget is £250 I'll see how that goes for now.
    Thank you.

    Hello - I'd like to join please.
    I'd like to budget [STRIKE]£100[/STRIKE]£40 for my new month starting 28th.
    House fund: ~£5000 / £10,000 :D_£1000 emergency fund #208 - £151.74/ 1000 _
  • $500 again please. I haven't kept up precisely with this month but I will come in slightly below, so that's a good budget amount for me to stick with.
    Overprepare, then go with the flow.

    I'm in again too please. I'll go for £360 this month as we had lots of visitors and fancy food last month so there's a lot of normal food left in the cupboards and the freezer is still well stocked.
