Good morning! I hope a fab week awaits us all.....
Let us know what small steps you will be taking or have taken today on your journey to becoming debt free.
I will be.....
- making my meal plan and shopping list
- going to supermarket and sticking to said shopping list
- doing my piggy clicks
Yesterday I did the car insurance through quidco saving £30 on my insurance quote and gaining £130 cash back. Woo hoo! :j
Have a good day everyone. It is DH birthday today so off to see Rocky Horror this evening. Will try not to buy ice creams in the interval, but not holding out too much realistic hope of being successful!!!

My local council agreed to let me pay in 12 instalments instead of 10, but said it was only a 'one off' and couldn't be done again. Meanies!

I have not got a lot planned today.
But I need to get Garreth weighed, so decided to pop down into town afterwards (walking) and I'm going to go to Aldi and pick up some jam. Then onto the council Offices to pay my Council Tax Arrears, then to pay my t.v. license, and buy gas and electric.
Have British Gas prices gone down because I'm not spending as much?Beth86

Most councils spread the council tax monthly payments over 10 not 12 months anyway, as they use the remaining two to chase up non payers.
