    Well done you. I always then start towards the next £50 with gusto, and then flounder when like now i am half way there. I just went over £27 this morning.

    Set yourself the target of £30, then £35 etc. I am struggling with what to write this morning, waiting for lots to be put on, but don't want to lose the motivation for the next cheque.

    OH is at work today so I think I am going to take DD2 swimming and then need to get a few bits from the supermarket. Will try to keep it a low spend though.

    Going to get a couple of loads of washing out on the line and hope the weather stays nice.

    DY almost all validated so I can request. Will be on about £4 again by the time I request, so hopefully the motivation will stay high. I have some ebay items ending later and one is selling for £8.99 :) better than my usual 99p

    Well we've been swimming this morning and to the supermarket this afternoon. managed to spend £50 but that did include a cheeky bottle of wine and some cheesecake for me tonight.

    Did a p!c0ne this morning which was nice. no more eBay bids tho :(

    I think were going to take a walk to the local country park this afternoon after a roast chicken lunch. OH is going to get my new wheel put on this morning, hope that doesn't cost too much.

    One new tyre bought and wheel swapped over £65. It flows out so easily doesn't it, shame money doesn't come in the quickly.
