    Yes really pleased on both counts :D

    Well doesn't look like the overtime at work is going to happen so instead I have made a list of things to do this weekend to help towards debt busting.

    List items on ebay - found a few more unwanted items that should do well
    See if I can sell some of my unwanted books online
    Make up a few more of my craft items - working towards opening an etsy store
    Empty all kitchen related boxes
    Shop for the month - apart from fresh veg

    My OH has finshed the shelves in the pantry, ok so really its an understairs cupboard that opens into the kitchen, but it's cooler than the rest of the house so to me it's a pantry, and I'm ridculously excited about it.

    Thanks, and it gets better, we get lunch thrown in as well, so that will help save a little more.

    And on checking my bank account my OD is £700 not £750 so I've just cut £50 of my debt without doing anything :rotfl:

    Thanks Sista :-)

    Well day one of overtime down, it was boring as it's stock take and who really wants to spend a weekend counting things :-) but as my OH wisely said think of the money.

    Day two tomorrow and then back to the normal day job on Monday which I'm quite looking forward to for a break :-)

    Made a few bills yesterday so that's a start on debt bursting, I'm aiming to pay of 2% in July in total, so lets see how I do.
