Somehow I managed to come in 35p under target for the month on £160.85/£161.20. No idea how I managed that as I thought I'd completely blown it so bought a whole load of junk yesterday!

Well done everyone - see you in the June thread!Mortgage free as of 12/08/20!

I'm declaring at £110/£120, leaving £10 to roll into June. Not 100% sure how that happened. We did have a couple of spends last week, so I was surprised to find that we still had money in the purse (£8.60 in Costco on Chicken Enchilladas on Wednesday and £2.70 in Mr T's on YS veg on Friday).
