  • eamd huge thanks for starting this thread :j

    No problem, thank you, its helping me focus on not spending on crap :T I've cut my bought lunch (not very DFW i know but i work long hours in Jan) from just under £4 to £2.65 which a) keeps me on budget and b) saves me about £7 on a 5 day working week (although i work 7 in Jan)

    Probably going to buy butter and ham tomorrow to leave in the fridge at work and then i just need to buy rolls each day. Will cost me a bit tomorrow but then its only about 50p for some rolls each day! :j This challenge is getting addictive :D

    aimme if you cant see it start it. I love it when new challengers/people start this thread. There is a kinda agreement though that peopel wait till around 10am~10.30am before starting it. if its not started by then i am prob in work. If however you feel like starting it and its not showing but you have good news or just want to randomly start it go ahead whatever the time :rotfl:

    I wasnt sure about starting it as didnt want to step on anyones toes :o , but it got to lunch time, i couldnt see it and i wanted to post how i'd done today :rotfl:

    However the end of the week got the work dinner dance coming up, with £44 on hotel room. (wayhey... and not too far to stagger after downing the free wine on the table)

    Hopefully I won't have to shell out on any drinks.... :rotfl::rotfl:
