Hi everyone,
I've not been on for a while as I have been poorly sickbut I'm better now
Progress has been made here, thanks to a certain bird that buys DVD's and CD's we have paid off one debit
and by using the snowball calculator I have just managed to pay £85 on a buy now pay later debt we have. I'm so chuffed as it feels like progress
Groceries should be fairly cheap this week too as I have bits let over from being ill last week (every cloud).

Another Council Tax free month so paid half of my bill onto the CC thats another £60.00 to the total and taken me over the £100.00 mark up to £136.15. Can't believe it.
I'm really excited about the fact the dreaded loan finishes in May so hopefully extra funds avaliable to get the CC paid off quicker.
Well done everyone0 -
£48.52 this week!
Been very lucky with my final batch of ebay sales, along with splitting the cash left in my account at the end of the month between savings and debts, and finally converting my euros back to £'s.
Feels really good, next week will be closing down my Natwest CC!Think that future weeks will be a bit different as I move back to purely focussing on travel and not drinking so much takeaway coffee.
