I have had a nightmare 24 hours. Thought I'd lost some of my birthday money (£75 worth :eek:) as couldn't find it anywhere, but have just now found it tucked away in the back of my drawer at work. It must have been instict to hide it away but I just couldn't remember doing it. Thank goodness as some of it will be going towards this challenge. Not quite sure how I stop being such a ditz though. I lose things all the time :mad:
Today is an especially good day as my auntie gave me a cheque £20 for my birthday last month but dated it wrong so I get to pay it in today together with another cheque for £10 and all my £2 coins I'd saved up so I shall soon be adding more to my total :j
I shall update here when the coins are showing in my bank account.LBM February 2008. DFD March 2013 19 August 2011Debt at LBM £14,395.48. Debt Now £00 -
£32.20 paid off for me today. I renegotiated my mobile phone contract a few weeks ago but didn't expect it to kick in until my October bill so had over budgeted :rolleyes: and this is the difference. If only things like this happened every month:D.
Still to pay, £2,295.81.Debt at LBM (May 2007) - £32,891
Debt at 06.04.10 - £9158.57. Getting there slowly. :j
