£95 for 10 days

102 Posts
I am setting myself another small challenge to help me stay on track until the next pay day.
I have 10 days to go and I have £95 in my purse. I want this to get me through, I don't want to dip into my savings or put anything on my credit card.
I have plenty of food in the fridge and the cupboards to feed hubby and me. All I should need to buy before pay day is milk, bread, fresh fruit and vegetables.
I have one social event in the diary and that's drinks with friends on Friday night. But these days that is 3 or 4 drinks in an old man pub, not club hopping until the early hours!
I should be able to make it through to 22 Sept on the contents of my purse if:
I take a packed lunch to work every day
I decline any invitations for a swift half after work or at lunchtime
I don't buy any ciggies when I'm out on Friday
I fight the urge for a mars bar here and a can of Coke there and all those little things that Add up!!
