Happy Thursday!
Well, today's small steps for me include:
- a mystery shop
- update my ebay totals and list a couple more bits and pieces
- pay my business bills so I don't get late payment fees
- try to stay sane as half term progresses!
Have a good day everyone and let us know what steps you are taking today on your DFW journey x

Happy Thursday indeed!
Good luck hypnoenjoy mystery shopping!!
Well, I will NOT buy a fruit this morning because I nicked a banana from my mummy…Saving: £0.30
Not major, but money saving: started walking in to work in trainers & changing to heels here. Saving: £5.99 per month per shoe on heeling (it actually does make a difference!! I started this in November and haven’t had to heel ANY of my shoes since, and I wear high heels all the time!)
I will pop home before the evening event I am organising and drink coffee at home – saving: £1.50 on coffee.
Can’t think of anything else right now…Total debt £3625.07.
Goals: 1.) DFD December 2008 (snowball) / October 2008 (me:o ) 2.) Salary £30kpa (currently £26450pa) 3.) Slim down to 55kg (currently 68kg) 4.) Start stoozing :j

Morning Hypno, delicosa and those who come after me.
Todays DFW duties will be changing the cards that fund/supply my paypal account to make it my credit card instead of my very overdrawn account. eeep. and also clear all funds due, into said account before i switch.
and my own favourite DFW job for the day... ignore OH and refuse to buy him some new work shirts out of my money as payback for getting me a petrol-station kinder egg lastnight for valentines day... that will teach him.. will kill him to spend his own cash!!0 -
I've made a giant pan of chilli, padded out with a tin of baked beans. When it's cooked I'm going to put it in the tubs that I bought this week and put it in the freezer. It should do me about 8 meals.0

Today I am...
Working 3 extra hours overtime, so I am doing an 11 hours work today...and then I have Friday, Saturday and Sunday off. Yeha!
I am walking to the post office with HEAVY Ebay parcels rather than using the car.
I am using left ofver bolognaise sauce from the freezer with pasta for tonights tea.
I have watered down my 1/2 bottle of cream facial cleanser (69p from Wilkos originally) this morning. Its quite thick and when watered down it works just as well.
I have started taking my tea bags out of my cup before adding the milk so I can use each teabag twice.
Sat with cardigan on, instead of putting heating on.
That's all folks...so far. :T
Have a special day special peoples.

Ive been tinkering with my spreadsheet and i have a postal order to pay in and my change pot, and all my 20ps and £30 in my purse
If i paid £13.01 in to my credit card, it would only take 2 more £100 a month payments to clear. Closed end of.
I could pay the rest in to my overdraft to make the effort and show them im trying, and ive withdrawn £15.38 from my paypal and paid it in to my barlcays account while i wait to see if they accept my offer of paynig £200 a month to clear it.
Hopefully if i sell a bit more stuff, i can pay off another chunk to my credit card (i want that gone first) and then whatever else i have, goes straight to overdraft.
Im feeling quite perky today about this0 -
