  • Afternoon all,

    £1 for me today.

    £41 remaining.
    This time I haven't smoked since 6th Jan 2014 and still going ok.
    Fingers crossed x
  • I pay my council tax and water over 10 months so this month is a free month for both of them, so I have used £110 from the £121 (left the extra £11 in my bills account) to my virgin card so my total is now...

    £534.95/2251.60

    Am waiting on another £50 to hit my account from paypal but I won't include that until I've done the transfer.

    Penelopedee, you are true insparation :)
  • Cheers Amara, but I'm not really. I've just got loads to sort out and its suprising how the totals come down when I focus on it every day. It makes me feel better the rest of the day if I know I've paid something towards it in the morning (if that makes sense).

    So, £1 for me today.

    £38 remaining.

    Also I get paid at odd times, its not a regular payment, so it makes it difficult to budget month by month.
