Talk about tempted!! I went to Good Guys with a friend over ther weekend and they had a HUGE sale on! My laptop died a couple of weeks ago and even though they had exactly what I needed (with 20% off) I did not purchase! I still have $40 cash in my wallet! not bad for a whole week!! It was great to not need to use the card too!! Hope everyone else went well!!

Well the weekend is over. I'd love to know how...

Well the weekend is over. I'd love to know how everyone went with "no spending" over the weekend. Did you just stay home? If you went out did you find free activities? How did you manage the snacks and drinks if you went out?

I did go out for coffee, but I used a voucher for a free cappucinno and sat and enjoyed a nice long chat with a couple of friends. We met straight after lunch so I wasn't even tempted to buy something to nibble on.

How did everyone survive their first day? It was a stay-at-home day for me, apart from doing the school run. Not even an opportunity to spend money!

I will have a go, first time I have done this, so I would like to save $50.00 this no spend week. Just hope hubby will come onboard with it.

I'm in! I have just started doing the 'cash only' thing every week (been three weeks now!) - have occasionally needed to use the debit card (I don't have a credit card!) so hoping to have change left over from my cash amount and not spend any other!! That would be saving enough for a start!

I'd like to register, I hope to save $75. I'm trying to build up my savings after moving house, fixing my cars' alternator and my washing machine blowing up all in the last 3 months!
