    Day off from work today so decided after clearing my purse out yesterday and finding some vouchers that needed using to head off into town.

    Voucher 1 + 2: £5 off Boots No.7 and 375 extra points if you buy a Boots No.7 item.....wellI needed a mascara and my favourite is made by No.7 so win! Mascara £7.50 instead of £12.50 and extra points.

    Voucher 3: £5 off when you spend £30 in La Senza.....new underwear was needed and although this isn't usually where I shop for undies (usually supermarket for me) I had a gift card fromChristmas too so 2 sets of undies £30 minus £5 voucher and £15 giftcard....£10 spent.

    Both these vouchers were ending tomorrow so I am happy with my bargains.

    Caught up with all the diaries on here now and so off to do some cleaning and washing and ironing as that's what days off are for:rotfl:
    Pay as much as you can in 2011- £3688.54/£6000
    Pay as much as you can in 2012 - £3190.96/£6000
    LBM - August 2010 - £19202.30
    Current - August 2012 - £11803.68
    Paid so far - £7398.62

    I have decided to no longer keep a diary as I don't have much of interest to say.

    I will continue to lurk and pick up hints and tips and stay on with my challenges.

    Good Luck to you all and thanks :)

  • Honey sorry to hear that, what about keeping your diary and updating weekly if daily is to much.

    O2bfree I just read all your diary from the beginning and was really sorry to see you have stopped! What made you decide to stop? At the beginning it seemed to really motivate you. Do you not find it helpful any more? You sound a bit down. You're doing so well (I know from your posts on the paying off money in 2011 thread), I hope you come back to your diary. I hope you also have lots of support from your family. It looks like you do a lot of supporting and caring for people, like so many women on this forum - I really hope they are doing the same back for you.
