Betty - welcome back you have been missed.. hope you enjoyed your safe normality month(whatever that is lol). So Very good:p how tidy is your signature now:rotfl:
Brill news on the 0% that will have a major impact for you and your sucess;)
Me? Finally got son to finalise his online banking - yahoo getting ready to show him how to stash his litteral pennies and make a difference. I have had a sucessful October updated last week my status, so just now making sure got enough to pay my dual fuel bill in December as EDF not billed me all year!! was this really a good thing to do - I dont know. I have saved the payments they wanted to charge me so we will see:( I cant switch till December due to contract.

Evening fellow budgeteers, Quidco payment received so £28.02 paid this week. Can't believe my tiny little amounts since joining this challenge in April have reached nearly £500 in overpayments!
Keep going everyone, every little payment counts.
Have a good bonfire weekend everyone.

hi cranny, lanky, plmbl and everyone else :wave: some nice totals coming along. Do you think we should have an end date and all declare totals then start afresh?? Like new year or something, just a thought.

Anyhoo i'm back on board properly now, there was a transfer fee on the cc so ive rounded that down and balance now stands at 1400 so i know its gone up but its for the greater good. That was a £16.76 overpayment.

Ive also put about £4 in my tin this week so as not to neglect it, it is getting rather heavy now, cant wait to start a new one, means ive done better than i thought i would with it.

This week I have done a full food/cleaning/toiletry inventory and have wrote it in a exercise book so i can see which areas i need to cut back on replenishing which will hopefully leave me a little more change from the shopping to stick in my tin. I already meal plan and stick to a tight budget but I am a sucker for spending any overs on 'just one more ariel gel with a coupon while its on offer' (i currently have a stash of 9 ) I do sometimes find being frugal and stockpiling completley at odds with each other.

Right im off to pop some stuff on ebay, have a good day everyone.
