New to Forum, New Saver and New Life!

Hi all,

I am joining the forum for a bit of encouragement in watching you all get debt free to inspire me on my journey back into the black!

We have amassed some debts following our wedding, buying a house, buying a car, getting two big dogs who we adore and we had planned on spending the next two years paying off our debts - except now I am pregnant!

I'm due just after New Year so I want to get as sorted as possible by then, paying off the priority debts as I don't think it will be as easy to save when I am on maternity leave/working part time!

I'm looking forward to getting encouragement and inspiration from you all achieving your deadlines and I hope we'll be as settled as possible by the time the baby arrives!

    Any help is welcome!!

    At the moment I'm trying my best to cut costs and spend as little as possible over the next 6 months, hoping to throw all spare money at the debthole - any ideas/tips welcome!

    Am trying to make extra money on topcashback and onepoll forums - we need to figure out some alternative ways to save and make money so any tips welcome and I will of course be scouring the boards!!
