A No Spend Week

I was naughty last week, buying lunch and coffee on three occasions. It was all down to laziness, and not making myself something before I went to work in the morning. This week I'm planning on a total no spend week. No spending on anything. I have petrol in the car and food in the cupboards. I (we) will make do with whatever we have. I currently have £4.87 in my purse and I aim to have the same amount in there Sunday evening.

Have you ever gone a whole week without spending? Do you want to join me?

  4. Good luck on your no spend week.

    In short time, I need to cut back on our Cash Allowance $89 per week in order to get prepared for my Student Loan repayment plan beginning (bleck). I don't want to pay another debt, so I am trying to erradicate an equal debt payment to make room for this new one.

  5. I'd love to but we're taking a short break - my aim would be to do a no spend week in September once all our main 'beign away' expenses are out of the way.

    I have been spending quite a bit recently so I could use something like this challenge to get me back on the straight and narrow!

  6. I can do no-spend weekends and sometimes no spend weekdays, but I don't think I ever make it through 7 days in a row without spending something!
