3.4.07 what small dfw thing have you done/will you do today?

Good Morning lovely DFW peeps :hello:

Let us all know what small dfw/mse steps you will be taking today on your journey to debt freedom. They may seem insignificant at times but they are the things that can make the long term differences to our financial health.

So today I will be:

- Making an overpayment of £10 to a Credit card after OH sold an old bluetooth headset
- going to a friends for lunch and for the children to run riot with her children, thereby saving money on a holiday activity
- doing online banking
- clicking on the piggy site!

So, have a good day, everyone x

    Morning everyone!

    ....Today I have brought my packed lunch to work to save money...

    .....I will buy my work travel season ticket later on which is my cheapest option for work travel..

    ....I will post a book that I have sold on Amazon - only making £2 profit but it all helps!!!!

    ...I managed to encourage DH to take pack-up to work today too so he's saving money with me which is great!

    And this isn't today but last night but just wanted to mention - we managed to get our weekly grocery shop down to £26!! which I'm really proud of - and this includes pack-up foods for the week!!!

    Have a great day everyone!

    Ever wonder about those people who spend £2 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backward.

    Oh I have a lot to learn ;)

    Without realising I have:

    Brought my lunch to work
    Left my purse at home 9which has stopped be from buying books from the book people - I found a 3 for 2 offer at hotdealsuk but realised that had I had my purse I would ACTUALLY be spending £20 no saving £10 :rolleyes: )
    Will NOT be drawing money at the cashpoint.
    Will kick myself up the derrière to get that *stuff* on eBay!!

    :T :T :T
