    steameh, this thread is just to report any spends you make each day, anything. however the challenge is moozies challenge (i think its on page 2) where you pledge what you will spend all week not including your budgeted things (debt repayments/insurace/bills/food ~ if you budget food) and then you tell me the following suday and i turn you red/green depending on what you spent. Its just a fun way to keep your spends low :D
  • Morning everyone! Hopefully a NSD for me. Should be selling an old bike part to someone aswell so will hopefully be £15 up by the end of the day!
  • Morning Pap, and everyone.... on holiday from work this week, and DS is at nursery, so should be a NSD for me today - only the dog, the housework and, of course, MSE to keep me company :D What more could a girl want!?!

    Good morning PaP, and everybody :hello: :hello: :hello:

    PaP - I read your 'report' about the Birmingham meet - so glad you had a ood time - I agree that a 'Southern' based meet would be a good idea, as I would love to come. :T :T

    Anyway - I'm not working today - so far at least - I am still absolutely shattered from 'covering' over the week-end, si I really hope they don't call me in this afternoon (I would have to go as I need the money and can't afford to refuse work). :eek: :eek:

    So far, at least, it's looking like a 'No Spender', but will update if things change. :cool2: :cool2:

    Have a great day, everyone. :smiley::smiley:
