11.4.07 what small DFW thing will you do/have you done today?

Hello :hello:

This thread allows us all to share the small things that we are doing each day, which in turn form good habits and help us along the road to being, and remaining debt free.

Today I will be:

- doing piggy clicks
- paying takings in to the bank before I have chance to spend the cash instead
- completing holiday insurance claim forms for my missing bags
- sticking to meal plan
- having a nsd

Have a good day, everyone x

    You forgot "eating dust" :rolleyes: !!

    Well, its 5:02pm here, so I should have left work already - will claim the 2 minutes overtime.:p

    So far I have spent a big fat 0 today, and tonight I will force myself to go to the gym and perhaps watch a dvd I got from a free dvd rental trial thingy.

    That's all I've done today.

    Just need another zillion other No Spend Day's!!

    Have a good day everyone xx

    Hello, I've not noticed this thread before but it looks interesting.

    Today I am cleaning and painting my wooden greenhouse to ensure it lasts as long as I do!

    Have done the ironing on cheap rate electric.

    Having an eat-up tea as it's just me tonight

    Cheers!

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

    Evening all.

    Today I:

    * Got lifts to & from work so no bus fare
    * Found a gift at home that I can send to my friend saving me from having to find cash!
    * Did C & S online - by the way, I meant to say I WON A PIGSBACK QUIZ LAST WEEK! 1000 points woo hoo!
    * Took HM lunch to work

    That's it. Spent more than I saved though but there is nothing I can do about it. We had an attempted break in last week so more money having to be found for more security measures :rolleyes:

    Congrats LA on the PIgsback quiz. I've been entering like mad for months now and not won a sausage. I'm glad the points went to a fellow DFW though.
