Happy Easter everyone!
:EasterBun
Let us all know what small steps you will be taking today on your road to becoming debt free.
These are the things that you may have thought insignificant, but actually they form the good habits that allow us to make real progress, and to stay debt free when we get there!
So, today I will be:
- doing a car boot sale and taking a flask of coffee with me to avoid spending unnecessarily
- putting a couple of things on ebay
- announcing the start of pasta week in the hypno house (you can have anything you like for dinner, as long as it is pasta)
- not giving my nieces and nephews easter eggs this year but just to send e-cards to them instead.
Have a good day everyone, and enjoy the sunshine x
