I'm really looking forward to doing this but have to put it off for another week. It is my dad's 60th birthday this week and we are treating him to dinner and us 4 siblings have arranged to buy a joint gift. After that, nothing to stop me!0

Well done Vixtress. Just read this thread today. I can spend nothing on myself quite easily but I find it really difficult not to spend on the kids. My problem really because they don't ask for that much and if Ii say no they accept that okay. I will get better I am sure.5 Year plan. April 2020 to June 2025- CC and mortgage free by time I'm 60
Currently CC £23,674.36 /£14,895.41/£14315.42
Mortgage £28,214.65/ £26,254.71/ £25,746.43
By end 2020 I want CC at £ 19,000.00.
By end 2021 I want CC at £10,000.000 -
day number 8 and i succumbed to a can of diet coke so 40p!

so final projected spend for 9 days..............£1.49 :j :j :j
thanks to everyone for your support and kind words! :T :T :beer:- prior planning prevents poor performance!
