    Well done Emz, sounds like you are right on track :)

    I too am hoping to sort out my bedroom after the ex has moved all of his stuff out, which he should be doing today and tomorrow when I am at work. One day I will decorate the room too but as it is liveable (or however you spell it) at the moment and not like I am trying to coax anyone up there I think I will do this when the debt is looking better! xxx

    Hi Donna

    Hope you can get your bedroom sorted out soon. It's always so much nicer to live without clutter.

    I told my OH that I had cleared a lot from the bedroom and he just said 'great, we can bring in some stuff from the shed then'. Umm, no!! I'm trying to clear the damn clutter :mad:.

    Did a bit more sorting out yesterday and then settled down to watch The Prestige - absolutely love that film :D.

    OH is back tonight. He is taking me to TGI Fridays tonight as he got paid today and got a massive bonus. I'm hoping I can squeeze some petrol out of him too ;).

    I don't think I am going to be able to add anything else to the bed fund now. Also, I'm still waiting for a £10 voucher from a survey company to come through (redeemed ages ago :mad:). I'm going to wait until Monday to see if it comes through, but I'm not holding my breath. So I may have to put £30 towards the bed.

    Have a good evening Em, and good luck squeezeing fuel money too ;) For what its worth I think you have done very well with your bed fund, £30 is nothing compared to the £205 you would have had to find. You have done very well little lady, don't undersale yourself :o

    Take care :A

    I think you have done brilliantly with the vouchers - how many people can say they've only paid £30 for a bed? :D

    Enjoy your dinner tonight - I love TGIs, the Jack Daniels sauce is amazing :)

    Thanks Beccie :A. I'm going to start trying to get Amazon vouchers for my sister's baby hamper now. The good thing is that I can get that bit by bit.

    I love TGIs too. I always have the Jack Daniels Chicken and Cheesy Mash :j:j. Yum yum yum :D.

    Are you sure he didn't say that just to wind you up?

    Hi Emz, I think you've done really well with the vouchers for the Bed! Dont be too hard on yourself and the £10 voucher can go towards something else! :beer:
