so back from my weekend away. came in way under budget as only spent £15
so £25 left over. will save that for leicester and can reduce amount i need from debt account.
made a payment today of £488 to mum
items sold for £12 yest so will pay that off when it clears
still got another cd to list as well
so in other news i have decided to go on holiday to india this year i was going to spend about £500 going to spain or somewhere so thought sod it and will go somewhere i really want to go (its wayyyyyy cheaper than peru so thats why im not going there!). i have given myself a budget of about £1500 but hope to come in under. flights seem to be around £400-£500 and tours are £300-£600. need to decide where abouts to go to pick tour. will get a guide book from the library if they have one. :j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j0 -
More expensive than Spain, less expensive than Peru
Sounds like the perfect compromise Mortgage Aug 12 £165K, Aug 19 £0
ISA challenge start 2019 £3000/£1500 (50%)0 -

Wow, fabulous!
It is incredible that you can go half way round the world for the same price as to as Europe or even somewhere in the UK!
I'd know where I'd rather go! DEBT FREE SINCE 25.07.14!

so exciting news! clippy is going to peru in aug! :j:beer::D:T
friend couldnt go india in oct and when i went into sta to get some se asia brochures the guy told me peru trips were on bogof! now obviously this is going to be a bit more expensive than india but so so worth it. peru is the place i most want to visit atm. if i went next year i was looking at a tour that cost £2450 which included salt flats. now the tours on offer dont go there but they are only £1800 so will be £900 each. for that amount of saving i think i can live without the salt flats! so so so excited :j still need to book it yet....
so now i need to step up the challenge to try and be debt free before i go! so every penny will count now and def need to ensure i dont waste money! MS is really quiet atm
decided really need to start comping again for cash or prizes i can sell. will aim for 100 comps per week. think that should be doable as is only 10 per week night and 25 on each day at weekend! and if i dont have any plans then i can do more!
plans for today-
clean downstairs
wash floor
go gym
make l&p soup
make dinner for friends
enter 25 comps when friends gone
best go get dressed and get on with it! :j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j0 -

Wow that sounds incredible Clippy.It’s not worth doing something unless someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren’t doing it.
