Sounds like you're making progress Shopgirl. Glad to hear you've cancelled that insurance too!!
I know what you mean about shoes - I had to promise when I bought my last expensive pair of party shoes that I'd make them last well - sadly they kill my feet and only go with plain black so I've only worn them once - LOL! I've made the previous pair last exceptionally well though - they must be coming up for ten years old now and still holding up well! Mine are all stacked up in boxes in the wardrobe so it's a devil to sort out what's where.🎉 MORTGAGE FREE (First time!) 30/09/2016 🎉 And now we go again…New mortgage taken 01/09/23 🏡
Balance as at 01/09/23 = £115,000.00 Balance as at 31/12/23 = £112,000.00
Balance as at 31/08/24 = £105,400.00 Balance as at 31/12/24 = £102,500.00

How is the meal plan going? I've got to do mine before Thursday - Fridge is very empty now, thank god for a full freezer!It's our patriotic duty to keep shopping - someone has got to keep this economy up and running:rotfl:
I totally agree I shall immediantly go out at lunch and buy something straight away! Currently studying for a Diploma - wish me luck

Phase 2 - £20,000 Mortgage Fund - Underway0 -
Well done shopgirl!
We love meal planning, something to look forward to for the week and has really reduced our spending - last two weeks shopping about £50 per week. I've started getting deliveries as easier than dragging round baby plus getting discount vouchers too. My mum spends about £80 on her and my dad! But then she always buys branded products.0
