    I assumed we were saving for a treat, maybe some chocolate at that time of the month :rotfl:
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    lol..you could use the money for that if you like!.....i did the PMS last year for about 6 months and it worked so well, i thought i would do it again this year...i managed to buy a new breadmaker (£100) and several other large items like this out of PMS, although this time i will be using it to pay off debt and post ebay items!

    Jamie lovely to see you back on board. I have just been reading through your posts, you and many others have started to inspire me again. I haven't been very DFW lately, so really need to get back on track.

    Paid off another £100 today, this time off my overdraft though and not the credit card.

    Well done JD another £100 down!! :T :T
    I live in my own little world, but it's ok as everyone knows me here :)
  • Hi Jamie-you are doing great! Is your cc still £138.12? Are you paying interest on it or is it a 0%? Just a thought, but if you are paying interest, your savings would be better spent by getting rid of this £138??? Of course, if theres no interest then of course not. Don't forget to take a look on your local freecycle group(freecycle.org)if you fancy a hi-fi or something. you may save some money. Then you can buy more cherries and chocolate! I've always fancied keepimg chickens bet we ended up keeping bees instead-not quite the same ;-) but nice anyway. I don't find it makes money though as the equipment is costly but its lovely OS and good pure stuff. Keep up the good work-you are so inspiring to us all.
