Fantastic OM, well done _party__party__party__party__party__party__party_A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

Just a small update, we're off to a restaurant tonight, of course using a buy 1 get 1 free voucher from this site. Should be lovely one hopes. Other than that, I've got much quieter on this site, since hitting the MFW target, I've lost my mojo (if found please return asap). Also I think the Credit Card will be cleared early too, so I'm struggling to think of a financial challenge other than looking after MOM which in itself will be a great joy and privilege.
Anyway, quiet day other than eating out tonight, and hopefully will pay off a chunk off the credit card by the end of this week when we get paid again.Feb 2012 - onwards MF achieved

well a new month - and honestly, this is the last big overpayment!
Cleared the CC - 3.1k worth, which I am counting as savings in my head - so objective 2 done.
Need to ring First Direct today - to increase savings into my e-saver account - currently standing at £75 after three months, when the max is £900 (or £300 a month).Feb 2012 - onwards MF achieved

A week on, not a lot to report - saving hard, going down to a single salary will be a challenge. I guess by the end of this month, we'll see where we are up to. Ouch.Feb 2012 - onwards MF achieved

Hi Just caught up with everything, so pleased for you to be MF I truly feel so happy when every person posts with OPs whether big or small and gets to their target as not only does it reduce the interest paid to the banks but inspires everyone else to continue even when things are tough.
What a great way to start your new little family x0
