Looking to the Future ... My Mortgage Free Dream

yukkibear

Being the 5th today, it's money round up day. Mortgage is sitting at £79,452.38 after payment has gone on this morning. I'm please with this as it was only last month was we got under £80k so it's ticking down nicely.

The daily interest has dropped 4p per day so it's now £8.29 rather than £8.33. Pleased with that.

July's targets are

- Reach payout on DY
- Reach payout on one paypal survey site (whichever comes first)
- Meal plan and reduce the shopping bills.

But I'm having a holiday for a week of that so will have to be late starting this month. I may hope to squeeze a car boot sale in there somewhere.

Monetary targets are

- £28.51 to OP
- £79.78 to OP
- £60 to OP
- £52.37 to ISA

A total of £220.66 might be a bit tight with a week less, but I'll give it my best shot. I have until 5th August remember. Now I'm off to think about how to achieve this.

I have managed £1.75 on OW today which were two good surveys, must remember to keep checking them for more. Two Chow reviews posted for the bonus cash and rating done.

Also just done a MS for a large supermarket. Got all non perishables and holiday stuff so should be a winner in the long run. Managed to sneak in a 40 min run as well earlier. Shattered now!

Good progress.

2 per day is probably a good aim. That way you can get a good bonus at the end of the month.

Wow a 40 min run. I can't do 4!

Lol I did a bit of walking in that too, but I get spurred on by my friend I run with so it's all good. Means I can drink more wine :rotfl:

I ended up having a little flutter with a free bingo bonus I was sent and managed to win £39 :j sent to paypal and have withdrawn £50 this morning:j

That'll start the OP off nicely. Work today and need to get bits done in the house.

Well done
I got an email to say I won Euromillions last night.....shame it was only £10!

Nice little win on the bingo there. Glad you were able to take the cash out.

A tenner is a tenner jellie, well done.

My £50 paypal landed this morning so I've sent that to the mortgage :j

Very true- I reinvested it and won £2.90. I guess the lottery is one of my little treats.

Well done on the £50. You always inspire me to knuckle down with the moneysaving!
