    Total for the month of July I will let the figures speak for themselves to show how awesome you all are

    July £54,400.38


    Awesome indeed! It will be a tough job to beat July - but I know we'll give it a good go!

    Thanks again to the wonderful DT :T - she kept us all motivated for the month, which produced the fantastic total!

    Right £10 PAD for me. I feel renewed today - thanks for asking Hopeful
    The 6 week treat is a good idea, but I reckon I've used up a few year's supply, so may do without!
    New month (my birthday this month too - so extra special for me:D) and new Mantra SELF CONTROL (thanks Angelic;))

    Have a good day everyone and here's to a great MONTH!:beer:

    Well done Macgirl on your renewed enthusiasm! It is hard when you see stuff that would be perfect, I dunno why but these past few weeks (probably because I've been in the house more instead of out at work) I keep noticing things I want for the house, new bed linen, glasses, crockery, etc.. but I can justify buying it at the moment. I keep telling myself that the less I spend, the sooner my dfd comes around.

    Tell you now, on that first month that I am debt free I am gonna go out with the £500 odd quid that I spend every month on debts and have a MASSIVE spedning spree... thats my incentive!

    No pad yet, I'm gonna do my budgeting first then I'll be back to post it later. AMAZING total for July DT, well done everyone!

    Ths signature is out of date because I'm too lazy to update it... :o
