DH went to mums earlier and mentioned to her that we're on a budget now for everything to try and save a bit of money. She gave us £80 for shopping next week :j:heart2:
After a very brief discussion we decided to pay it off the debt so now only £86 until i'm under the 19k mark :j
As soon as i'm @ 18...something, i will start my diary
