Oh and I forgot to say...tomorrow my last payment goes out to paying off my DMP once and for all... £420.87. Have confirmed with the 3 remaining creditors, with CCCS and my bank, so come the end of December when CCCS pay them, I will be debt free! Woo hoo! :T

Morning everyone,

I hope you all had a good wednesday.

Mine was a complete disaster as you can see from my signature :mad:.

Where to begin.. lol..

Basically I spent £9.00 to see Santa in town and the kids wanted a photo as well, how could I say no? Santa!

My husband needed £10.00 for his work xmas drinks (never mentioned anything to me until yesterday morning, typical man:rotfl:).

Then the dreaded food shopping.. I had budgeted £60.00 but actually spent £ 75.00:eek:. Should have been £65.00 but we ended buying our xmas turkey. Trying to make me feel a bit better.

To top it all off, we had takeaway yesterday.. another £20.00. It was the only one we had in the whole month and because it was payday I just thought we deserved it. I feel terrible now seeing on paper the amount of money spent.

And I paid for £30.00 towards our gas and electric billl. That is a must for me as I dont want a massive bill later on.

I think thats all , phew.

Have a lovely day everyone.

P.S.: dont forget to open the first box on your advent calendars

Good Morning everyonw.

So far my week looks like this.......

Sunday - NSD
Monday - £3.32 posting ebay parcels
Tuesday - NSD
Wednesday - NSD


But I have to post ebay parcels today (again) If I didn't have to post parcels I'd be spending nothing but I suppose I'm speculating to accumulate (IYSWIM)

Have a great day x
