    I've been doing the challenge Sunday to Saturday as I found I was using the 'day off' as an excuse to spend too much! :o Anyway, just nipped to the shops for a few bits of food & drink for some mates coming round later - spent £10.08 so added to the £8.10 on odds and ends during the week my total is £18.18 - I'm green! :j

    Make it £20 for me again this week - going to visit some friends on Friday I think so will need a bit for that but going to try to be very frugal during the week :D
    Debt@16.12.09 £10,362.38, now debt free as of 29.02.2012.

    Hard to say this week, supposed to be working all over the place, plus a trip to uni but I don't know if I can work yet. So £20 just incase but no work should be under £5
