Thanks mummytogirls x,
Have done quite a lot of food shopping this week but have quite a lot of meals in now so should hopefully be on budget.
Paid £22.21 min pay off next yesterday & paid off outfit card which was a little bit less than i thought at £74.99 really pleased that one bill is gone.
So glad its bank hol weekend & we get an extra day.
Going to try to make creamy bacon pasta for tea.

Hope DH gets his P60 soon to give figure to Tax Credits, hope it doesn't change too much else i'm going to have to rethink my plans for debt repayment.

I have just paid an extremely large amount off my debts:j (with hubby's redundancy:eek:) but the payment's in limbo so will update my sig when it reaches the card:mad:.
Well done on paying the outfit debt off. Well done to on the food front too.
How's the weight doing? I have 2 and half stone to lose - will get into it after a nasty exam I have in 10 days:(

Thanks Naefags, with 4 children i'm always busy with school/nursery runs & after school clubs as well as trying to juggle all these bills. I know its only a small bill but i felt such an achievement paying off, a few months ago i would have probably paid off the minimum and spent the rest on bits & bobs.

Hi dreamywings,
Thanks for subscribing.
Yes i do have it somewhere, i'll dig it out. Still waiting for the renewals pack to come through, although we have rang up the last few years without it and just gave them the figure as we have had such problems with the system. Still waiting 3 years on for them to look at our disputes all 3 of them!

Well done on your large payment, must be a lovely feeling.
Yes its only a small amount, but i'm really pleased i have paid it off.
Ha ha, the weight isn't doing! I have not weighed myself for a while, but i would like to be about 9st 7lbs, so probably about 2st. I keep thinking about going back to SW but its nearly £20 a month which could be put towards a bill and with a bit of will power i could do it from home as i still have the books.
Good luck on the 'nasty' exam, what are you studying?

May to do list
Paint hall, stairs & landing
Paint kitchen
Tidy & plant a few things in front garden
