    Hi All,
    Its been a while since I posted.
    Completely lost track towards the end of last month so I have P.M' d Mennie to ask for it to be listed a zero saved in May
    I started off ok and saved lots with careful shopping. Howevrer, just got back from hols and overspent by loads, so that has easily swallowed up anything saved last month.
    I have managed to keep chipping away at what I owe though, so thats something at least.
    Determined to get back to it this month and am currently listing old DVDs n games on [EMAIL="Z@pper"]Z@pper[/EMAIL].

    My next challenge is a £1000 slush fund to cover summer hol, mot, insurance, repairs etc, and I'll just top it up when I spend from it.

    My bank keeps sending me letters saying I have too much money in my offset accounts:rotfl::rotfl:Thankyou challenge.

    I be been sent some advantage card vouchers which seem ok so will look into using them, and something that sounds too good to be true thru Amex card, but this site is usually good so will take the free money!

    And if that all goes well, my eyes are eyeing up the mortgage!

    Well done everybody:T:T

    Another £50 added from overtime. Hoping I'll have enough to get intensive driving course booked in next couple of months. :)
