Morning folks
Looked for this thread but couldn't find it, so here's goes my efforts (curtesy of darling hypno).
Let us all know what small step you are taking today towards becoming debt free. This could be something that you think doesn't make any difference but reality is that these are the things that can form good habits that in turn lead to becoming and remaining debt free!
Personally I can see this thread becoming more and more like the daily o/s thread - love that idea and think the above should be our motto!
Today I
* am getting the bus into town to see a poorly friend
* shifted some money around and made an overpayment on loan
* squirreled some money away for Christmas
That's all folks!

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

Have stuck a gammon shank in slow cooker and will be making parsley suace to go with it. Shank making soup as it cooks - big dinner tonight and pot of lovely ham & split pea soup for £1.39 - bargainsville!!!!!!
In middle of waxing legs rather than going to beautician. Next will do other arms and ....em..... other bits :eek:
Am spending a lot of time talking about gammon shanks. I think I have 'issues'. Must get out more - not just to supermarket to buy more of them.

This morning I have phoned my phone and internet provider and combined my phone and broadband package saving £10 per month. Have also been told that once their cheaper service is offered in my area over the next few months I can save another £10 so a good saving there.
Am going to get the breakmaker out later and make some bread.
Going shopping and only buying what is on my list.
Cancelled some DD's that are no longer in use from my bank account.
Thats about all for me today, hope you all have a good day.0 -

Hi everybody - Happy Easter :j
I've been away for a few days and the spending diary did not come with me :eek: so that has got to be started up again as of today. I have checked what I have in the cupboards and made out a shopping list for the week - just need to get out of my dressing gown and get myself over to Asdaneed to get listing on Ebay tonight too
