Well, everything has gone a bit to hell recently.
We have stormed into the ‘over the over budget’ territory of the food/household shopping budget, and I have been getting by on not much more than hope.
Here we go.

Donation of food items to a Food Bank £14.57 (this was probably a very bad thing to do but at least I have helped some people)

TOTAL SPENDING THIS WEEK = £45.36
I have been doing some money making this week and have sold about £50 of books and DVDs but I will need to wait for these payments to clear before I get too excited.
I am going to ebay some items today. Things are getting pretty desperate.
