Budget time!
Food £70.00
Petrol £25.00
Social £30.00
School dinners £21.00
Holiday £30.00
Dance £20.00
Bills £51.50
total out:
£227.50
total in:
£282.84
surplus to holiday fund £35.34
I have £115.35 in the holiday fund with £198 of standing orders to go out, so if I can save the £35.34 I'd only have £11.31 left to save
If all goes to plan I'll have it all paid off on the 25th November. Hurrah! Total 'Failed Business' Debt £29,043
