    Afternoon all. This month I have a self imposed £20 per week (monday to sunday) plus £20 "happy money" to spend on myself. In my purse - to last until sunday - is £1.53! I am at a patchwork class tomorrow (£15 from my "happy purse") so should be able to achieve it. I dream of having that money left over to add to my happy purse rather than taking it out!

    Good luck everyone for the weekend xx

    Discovered we were drastically low on toilet rolls, one of those things I'd rather not run out of :cool: so £2.99 to add to my total.

    Hi All,

    Been awol for March and April but just updated my spreadsheet and it looks like I did ok anyway so am pleased with myself. This month I am going for £400 and for the first time this is going to include alcohol and friday night 'treats' which I don't normally include but need to be realistic as this is too high and so if I include it in grocery budget I will try and keep more in control...

    So £400 will include grocery, cleaning, toiletries and treats for 2 adults, 3 kiddiwinks and 2 chickens :)

    Not starting til monday as it is DHs payday and trying to get thru til then. Tonight is chicken curry and HM chana dahl to use up some yellow split peas that were lurking in the cupboard!

    Good luck everyone!

    Jedi x
    Finally getting my life on track. Onwards and upwards.

    I am going to drop my monthly amount to £250, I don't need to be on the front page.
    I am spitting feathers, I did a big shop at Tesco this morning, I did a lot of stocking up so I could make use of the £10 off if you spend £80 only to find I couldn't use it until Monday.
    Never mind I have loads of stuff in now. I have put another £10 on my Tesco clubcard for Xmas. Even though I don't post very often I pop in when I can, I would like to say thankyou to everyone for all their tips and ideas.

    I got paid today (:Tyahoo!) so have finally declared for April and am starting May feeling all clean and shiny and self satisfied.

    A budget of £200 again this month please (4 adults and a big dog)
    (though I'm happy to keep track in my sig)

    DH suggested that as we were doing so well that I might reduce it further to £150:eek:..... I told him that was fine so long as I didnt have to feed him during the divorce proceedings!!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Small shop for fresh veg, sandwich fillings and toiletries at Al*i today.


    Good luck everyone!:beer:
