i did the shop and it came to a grand total of £38.00, had a top end budget of £40 so came within, brought everything on my list and nothing else went in the trolley, quite a good feeling really.
another NSD in the current account so chuffed about that too, bringing in no money to work and going straight home is what im been doing lately, and to be honest its really working, plus once you do it for a few days u almost get a buzz from it and want to keep doing it until long as possible.
checked the accounts i now have £4.00 in the bills account, all DD's have been taken out and food shopping has been done.
£ 26 in my current account, nothing to spend on and out of the country next w/end, so im hopeful i will be ok till then...Debt Free date March 09:D hopefully sooner!

Hi lucielle- iv been so carried away with my diary i only just seen your message, once i get motivated then yes there really is no stopping me, im off to singapore, hong kong & malasysia for 2 weeks...
right back to the diary really annoyed today as i found out that i had to pay some interest on my tescos card, which i know longer have as i did a balance transfer but still have to pay the interest as that is calcuated a month in advance, i thought once the BT was done that was the end of it, then i get hit with a late fee as i did not pay...not happy about this but hey ho, had to pay £49 to clear the card, had to wack it on my credit card as i dont have the funds for it.
w/end was good, had a b.day dinner to go too, but it was all paid for by my friend so was a cheap w/end really...Debt Free date March 09:D hopefully sooner!

im back, all refreshed and tanned, and ready to handle the debts, i currently have £ 80.00 in my account, yippee, i know i left with £4.55, but somebody owed me and i got some money from visiting family. i intend to make the £ 80.00 last till pay day which is on the 27th, which im sure will be fine. Have enough in the bills account for food shopping and the monthy DD's so to be honest just waiting for pay day where i can tackle more of the debts.Debt Free date March 09:D hopefully sooner!

iv had 2 NSD's so far, so pleased about that, iv decided today that as i have £ 80.00 in my account i will pay £ 74.72 towards my bank loan, otherwise the money will just get frittered away on unnecessary things.Debt Free date March 09:D hopefully sooner!

checked my accounts and so far all is looking good, i have £ 106.00 in the bills account, all bills are paid so this extra can be used for food shopping, going to allow myself a budget of £40.00 and take the cash out before, i think its better to hand over the cash then card, also make me think twice when i start putting stuff in the trolley.
i have £ 5.28 in my current account, but i can make this last till monday 27th as i dont have any expenditure.Debt Free date March 09:D hopefully sooner!
