The 'I want it NOW!!' debt/savings thread

yukkibear

Jen if you do trusted places it has to be done by 4th sept i think so get reviewing, and choose the nearest big town to you, that's what I did, and then reviewed everything I could find that I frequent / frequented. Can't get into hotmail at mo, my internet is on a go slow tonight to check on voucher anyway.

Am having a browse on amazon on what to spend it on, will spend it as soon as I get it so I don;t forget about it.

MM yeah I know it's the right decision it;s just boring lol, but I WILL do it, just got to find the extra ways and budget properly.

It's so frustrating isn't it, but as we're both so close to being debt free it shouldn't be too hard surely. I know you'll beat me but I think when my mb money settles in proper cash I'll throw that at my debt and start again to see how quickly I can bring it down.

OK, so we are moved in. Not quite unpacked but that'll happen in time! Have put up shelves and just put all the boxes onto the shelves so that we can find the bed and at least walk around the room! New sheets are on the bed and I've already had a nap on the bed (which is really unlike me so it must be comfortable!). Looking forward to a good nights sleep and then not having to get up until a bit later tomorrow morning.

Total blow out on the budget though, but I think we'll just ignore this weekend and try to stay on the straight and narrow until the end of the month. Everyone else is doing so well, good on you all! Keep up the good work!

I don;t think not spending comes into te equation when you're moving aussie. I'm sure that;s written in the rules somewhere lol. If you can't have a takeaway etc then when can you?!

Must feel great but knackering and exhausting looking at what's around you, but will be so worth it when you have everything where you want it.
