Great news GRC!!!
Fantastic - that should boost your savings!
You are already doing really well! Doesn't £667 sound like a lot?!
Keep it up!
Think I am going to raid my meagre savings to put a dent in my credit card bill again. DH has paid off another €500 for me, so I feel I should try to match that if possible next pay day!
Still, it's heartening to check in here and see your progress! :beer:Debts: Credit Card: €6000 ---> €5050 Feb 25 \ Overdraft: Step 3/100
Savings: FF Fund: Step 23/100 \ CU: 3755/40000 -

Thanks! I have been in debt for a few years so it's a bit strange having savings!0 -
Day 1 of my £5 challenge. I cashed £2.50 change, got £1.70 from Quidco so close at £4.20.:j
OH started his job today two weeks of training and then nine weeks work. I have a feeling this Xmas is going to be awesomesauce! :beer:0 -
I have had a super busy day today. I had a big sort out and amongst my "clutter" found a £20 note. So £20 transferred to ISA and up to £692 :j
Must keep going tho, definately an incentive to clean more0 -
Up to £693 got 82p from TopCashback0

I am going to join in if I may. Ideally I would like £5k save by the end of the year but end of January is more realistic.0

Hi all not a lot going on in regards to the challenge.
Yesterday I had a NSD OH paid for both lunch and dinner which was nice for a change as I am normally the one for it
Trying for a NSD today but need to get food in and OH's mum is coming and staying over Tues so I need to clean up yikes!!0 -
Hi everyone, how is everyone doing?
Yesterday was a NSD, I stayed in catching up on news and reading. I love doing crosswords...not so rock n roll!
Today was a LSD I went to see the new Twilight movie which was great. I got to use my Nectar points so paid £1.60 for my ticket :j
I don't think I will have anymore NSD's as my bus pass has expired but I worked out it would be cheaper with two weeks off that I should pay for my fare :cool:
Thats all for now0 -
Got £3.80 from Quidco check ins I will update my signature.
I am also thinking about goals for 2013. I think you should think about them too. I think my main one is to complete this challenge.
