Trying my hardest not to spend any money unless I need to. I currently have £130 in my currents account, £150 in grocery fund + I'm waiting on £40 tax credits and £130 child benefit. I still need to pay for OH's birthday + food for the rest of the month but hopefully all the excess money can go to the credit card.
Only 23 days till payday!!

We have booked our wedding!!!. July 2013 - so plenty of time to save! We are planning on putting the money we would normally have put by for holidays into the "Wedding fund" so it shouldn't interfere with DFW/MFW plans
. I'm quite excited........

Not much happening on the BR money front at all!
Money seems to be getting hoovered up at the minute. I doubt anymore overpayments will be made this month unfortunatly as I appear to be skint and will bearly scrape through to payday (only 5 sleeps though!!
).
I'm not to fussed as I did manage to clock up £495 worth of payments in an otherwise expensive month! Nothing bad about that!!
On the baby front - I found out yesterday that I'm having a little girl!!
