£0 again today but am treating my daughter to lunch on Thursday as she's bringing my 3 week old Grandson over to see me in my lunch break. Do I have to count that? It's not going to be a spur of the moment thing because I couldn't be bothered to make anything. I can't let her drive over to see me and not buy her lunch (and they won't let me eat sandwiches there and there's nowhere else close enough to meet).

Have I pleaded my case enough? :rolleyes:

Congratulations Cassie!!! Wonderful news. I think a little indulgence can be forgiven considering the circumstances

Anyway, this week am on track to have no spends apart from Thursday when going on for one of the girls at work's leaving lunch. Thankfully we have a great pub near us that do a carvery for £3.50!! How cool is that! So this month I'm on track to have spent £15 in total on lunches, including three lunches out which is out of the ordinary for me in a month. Based on £3 a day (and usually I spend more than three pound, more like £4 but wanted to be conservative about it) that's a saving of £54 in a month! That's going on my Olympic Challenge total!

Monday 28th - £0
Tuesday 29th - £0
Wednesday 30th - £0 (Am stopping in all day! It's my Sunday tomorrow!)
Thursday 31st - £3.50
Friday 1st - £0

Congrats Cassie!! Lovely news (although it doesn't make me broody anymore - been there and done it 3 times and definately won't be doing it again

Well, hanging my head in shame here and I've got no excuses for today either, things have gone completely up the swanny this week.

So, can I scrap my totals and start afresh next week? Pretty Please??

Thanks all. Not planned and was a shock but will be fine, I'm sure!

Due September so a lot of time for saving yet!

And yes, no excuse for being naughty at lunch, but still in budget overall this month (budgeted alcohol consumption has saved me a fair bit!!) so I don't feel too bad!

Just about to update my signature after yesterdays splurge... :mad:
