debt.b.gone

Hi rags.
Its a bit of a mystery in my head at the moment as to where all the money usually goes, as no i dont seem to be feeling like ive given aything up yet. Maybe we have had a few less take-away/meals out. This used to be anything from once a week up to4 times a week....which if you sit down and work out is probably a heck of alot! But im also trying to slim down and so have given the take aways the heave ho unless its abig treat.

OH just called and said to i want a bbq tonight...now my immediate reaction is NO WAY!! I would rather put the money in my savings pot!! am i being tooooo silly??

That is OK. If you check the Announcement board it tells you what is included and what isn't.

It isn't too bad really with Chicken Pox, all 3 of mine had it, the baby had it first, then the older two, they were off colour for a day or two but are back to arguing and fighting with each other again, roll on next week when they can go back to school.

Do you have an iceland near you??? If so they do a bbq pack for £5/£7 (cant remember which) which we always get and is soooo nice!!! cant beat a bbq'd jumbo sausage!!!:D

Enjoy the nice weather and let your OH revert to cave man (must provide meat for family!!:rotfl:) and have a glass of wine. (or 3)

I have learned from experience that you need to indulge every now and then otherwise you fall off the wagon big style, just make your indulges mse style!!!!

weather is fab here so think i may take little one to the park for a little bit. Then i may make just one more payment for the day.......;)

Enjoy your BBQ, you need to have a bit of a treat sometimes.

We have Iceland at the end of our road and I'm in their everyday. They have some good offers, I get the Pepperoni Pizza which is £1.50 and it's really nice so much cheaper than paying £10 for one from Pizza Hut and it tastes just as nice.

They have had Disney Princess cartons of juice in there for £1 for 6, they didn't have any when I went a little while ago only the Buzz Lightyear ones. I got a bag of 10 Hula Hoops for £1 too.

We are off to the seaside for the day tomorrow.

So did you Ebay anything?

debt.b.gone

Angela....yeah managed to get a few things onto ebay, just a few items of clothing. they end on wednesday...so fingers crossed they go. no bids as yet though.

Well, we have been away this weekend. So not much paid off debts. Although i have just paid £98.58 to virgin. Tomorrow is a good day for debts as the loan payments go out!! Which means less debt and one month closer to being loan free! woo hoo :T

Will be able to work out properly tomorrow how much we have left for the month etc. Am looking forward to updating my sig tomorrow!! Cant believe the difference already.

Right I am shattered after our weekend so will say goodnight. Its bath time and bed for me. Hope all is well. Will catch up on all the threads tomorrow. x

morning diary!

well its been a busy morning. i have walked to town and back to pay some cheques into the bank.....good for the old diet! must have burnt about 400cals!! :j

Debt oustanding has now fallen some more!! So far today payments made....£296 for car payment, £105.75 for lloyds loan, £248.64 for hsbc loan. And £1.06 to my sealed pots.

Have updated the signature to show my fab achievements since getting stuck into this!! I cant believe how great this diary is...its keeping me soooooo motivated!!

Its going to be a hot day today so im prob going to keep little one inside in the cool. So its a playday indoors for us. Going to work out the bills still needed to go out this month and then make one more payment for today!!

Hope everyone is doing well .
