    If you've managed to get to day 19 of shred, I reckon you probably are looking leaner! Have you done your measurements?

    Thanks guys :hello:

    Tax credits in so sent £258.58 towards the Halifax bringing me under the £1500 mark :j a week ahread of schedule :j

    Hopefully I'll be under the next hundred bracket by the end of the month :D

    Crunched some numbers for next month as I want the Halifax cleared by the time I need to pay the holiday off which is the 30th April :eek: I'll be £400 short of clearing it :( so need to reign it in a wee bit more if possible and see if I can do it x

    Cashed out £45.70 from PA this will be getting transfered straight over to the Florida card as I've decided all survey money will be going towards the the spending money pot :cool:

    Start work at 10am might get the last day of level 2 out the way before I start then level three starts of the thirty day shred tomorrow :eek:

    Food shop tonight going to go to Aldi for a change and nip to b&m for tins of soup hoping to get this under £170.......we shall see xx

    Right off to dry my hair xx
