    hi mupet, no worrys, dont worry if you dont hit your target, this is about knowing what you spend, if you go over you just have to adjust the following weeks target. Then when you are ready you can try and lower it :D good luck

    Hi lindsaygalaxy - when i've had this work meal dilemma, i've made arrangements to be picked up/be somewhere else straight after the meal finishes, and leave when people are having coffees before the bill arrives. i work out what i have spent and left the cash plus tip with someone to cover my bit.


    Hope you enjoy the meal!

    Hi PAP - not done the challenge for a few weeks - don't get too much chance to get on here anymore :cry: - life too hectic & busy, too much housework & too much ebaying (made around £100 in the last month though :T )!!!!!

    Anyhow...can you put me down for £25 please? Won't be able to post daily on the thread - but will update next weekend! Thanks x
