Trying to remain positive

In all the doom and gloom of out of control debts and trying to tackle them and worrying about covering next weeks bills I phone to make a payment on a payment plan and find out I've paid off more than I thought

Store card was £1300 is now £720 !

This small achievement cheered me up a little and wanted to share :)

    By george you're right! I don't really think of how much impact the little things have - I tend to buy lunch at work every day which varies between £2-£5. Today I brought sandwiches :cool: (the fact I've been starving all day is neither here nor there...) But yes - £80 a month is quite a massive deal just for the sake of taking 5 mins to prepare a packed lunch!!
