    Sadly February is going to be a poor month for me as sooo many birthdays, so hopefully taking part in this will help me stick to my set amount a week. At the moment just spent whatever I want but need to save money so I can afford presents..!!

    I pay my travel daily so I must add that into my weekly spends otherwise I'd of lost before the weeks even started.

    £40 for me this week - that includes travel & £15 for the week for lunch & bits I need - magazines etc :D

    Evening pap,

    This week I will budget £30 as I'll probably need petrol before the week's out.

    Hey pap & all
    need to get back into this. so am gonna say £15.
  • My first week on this challenge, so hello everyone.
    I am going to aim for sub £20 this week. That will include a day trip to the cinema with my mates on wednesday which will require the usual popcorn and sweeties, but I do get 40% staff discount on those!:D

    Good Luck One and All,

    Hi Pap,

    Thanks so much for doing this every week - I'm sure it must take up quite a bit of your time - so I just wanted to say that it really does help.

    Anyway - I managed to spend just £10.00 of my budget last week - £2 per day in the canteen.

    I've got some books to buy this week so put me down for £30 please....

    Good luck all
