tylersbabe

Well had planned a no spend week which I mostly managaged other than a sml bttle D coke . I swear it was shouting my name tho and I just could not leave it on the shelf :rolleyes:.

Anyho spend for week 95p not too bad then *sighs*

Will not be posting as much as have assignment due in at end of month and it is a meer ten thousand words :eek:. So will be only posting once a week as when I get on here I can stay the night .

So this weeks pledge is to spend no more than £50 this includes part of monthly shop at MrS's.

So good luck and have fun everyone will post back next Sun but will proably have some sneeky lurks inbetween :rotfl:

Good luck with the essay TB! I've had years of them (14 years full time study in total!!) and have to say I dont miss em!! Do pop in if you can! Had a good chat with mum as we went round RFL and were agreed that sometimes you mut have treats, even if that means the DFW is put back a bit! Havig said that I now get much more panicky when I spend than I used to which is a cmplete tur around as I used to panic if I didnt but something every day!

Yep good luck with that essay! Quick update here, did Tesco shop, spent £10 voucher plus £3.30 cash, shouldn't need anything else all week. Just spent a nice ten mins putting a load of chillis (that I got last week reduced and have been lying out drying) onto thread to hang up to dry completely. Also started making some pickled cucumber - with a few slightly tired spring onions thrown in - all currently sitting in salt to take some of the moisture out - funny, I googled for a 'recipe' and ended up on Old Style! Been out sorting a few bits in the garden earlier and have some knitting to do later - trying to revive my very rusty skills - so apart from the evil supermarket a fairly OS sort of a day

I've spent way too much over the last couple of days - weirdly enough still under what I budgeted for it but still makes me feel guilty! you are right though we all need treats from time to time.

Evening everyone...

First of all i want to ask ... where is everyone????

Last night i told you all i was putting it back up to £20 which i did, But yesterday i started smoking again and from yesterday morning till now i have smoked 30 cigs! Im so ashamed.. as i went nearly 3/4 days (cant remember when i quit).. I seem to always get stuck on the 3rd day. I have come home tonight and found i have no patches so im just going to try and do it with the inhaylor.

Anyways i dont need any food in all week and my mum doing a online order friday for me as she is here for a week from sunday So wont need any food in for good few weeks. Plenty in now

So i have spent so far £12.97 iam so ashamed!!

Hello :hello: I've spent £2.45 so far out of £5 budget on a couple of bus fares (torrential rain yesterday) and another £2.81 on grocery budget for shampoo etc last night.

Good luck with stopping smoking Mumzy, it's hard but really worth it if you can do it.

evening all...umm...its gone awry! Disasterus week again to he point where I lost count! Had a traumatic day yesterday and had to have lunch on the road, then resorted to pizza & G&T in the eve, lunch out today because of training and team meal tomorrow! Must look at my diary before next time as if I had would have known that it wasnt doable this week...will check for next! How are others doing?! Better than me I hope! The only solace I have is that I'm still much better than I used to be lol!
