Hi everybody, it is time again for a weekly review:
I have to quickly add some expenses that occurred last Sunday after I posted a review, and they were:
SUNDAY
SOCIAL
£3.10 Coffee and small cake with Boyfriend
£3 Chips with boyfriend and two other friends whilst watching a WWE British Wrestling tournament.
On to this week:
SOCIAL
£1.95 Coffee with Coffee buddy at work (work has a coffee buddy scheme where you get paired up randomly with another member of staff each month and you meet and get to know each other)
£44.45 Weekend with Brother
£24.50 Finally paying for the ticket to see Stewart Lee in March that my Boyfriend bought ages ago.
WORK EXPENSE
£1.10 Milk
GIFT
£1 Card for Mother’s day
TOTAL
£79.10 An expensive week that hopefully won’t be repeated all too often. Does include the Sunday expenses though.
On to the food budget expenses:
My boyfriend had this week off as annual leave from work, so he was in charge of picking up the groceries, which is probably why I had to increase the budget 🙂
FOOD
£7.19 Milk, Orange Juice, Bread, Crisps, Chocolate Bars, Pasty and Baguette.
£0.95 Bleach
£1 Broccoli
£1.50 Listerine
£2.80 Coffee
£2.63 3 packets of cous cous, pilau rice, Fajita Mix sachet and tortilla wraps.
£0.99 Profiteroles and Milk
£4.89 Cereal Bars, Potatoes, Sweet Potatoes, Cucumber and Face Scrub.
TOTAL
£21.95
Today was my 7th No Spend Day (NSD) of the month. I hope to reach double digits before February.
I transferred £10 surplus money into my savings account today, that leaves me with £13.50 until payday, which is the 27th.
I have one guaranteed expense before payday of my train fare to Football which is £3.90.
I will have to buy milk at some point this week for work, and my boyfriend and I may go to a Jazz club on Tuesday to see a friend’s dad play with his band.
It will be a squeeze but can be achieved.
