Good Morning, it is a little early so forgive any typos as I need more :coffee:
Let us all know what small steps you are taking, which in turn form the good habits that will help you become debt free that much quicker, and just as importantly, it will enable you to stay that way!
These could be things that you might think to be insignificant, but remember from little acorns, big oak trees grow.....
So today/last night I have or will be:
- turned off lights after OH went to work this morning as the sun is already up
- started collecting tokens for cheap holiday from the Sun paper
- having storecupboard dinner sticking to pasta week meal plan
- taking leftovers for lunch while I am on my course
Have a good day - I am off to have another :coffee: x

Good morning hypno.
Am doing absolutely nothing today which means a NSD. Having lunch at mums and a storecupboard tea. Going to sit in the garden and finish an assignment (which I've been promising myself I'll complete for the last 4 weeks).
Hope everyone has a good day and enjoy the sunshine0 -

Hi all.
Today I have:
*Done three lots of 'economy' washing & line dried the lot.
*C & S online
*Walked to the bottle bank with BF instead of taking car
*Bought a window cleaning kit & used a voucher we had for B&Q to bring the cost down. This includes a telescopic pole so I can clean upstairs too which I needed after drawing the curtains this morning and seeing a bird had left me a lovely big SPLAT. So hopefully I shan't have to pay for a window cleaner again!
*Edit: Just sold an item on EBAY! OK it might only go for a quid but at least it'll be something else out of my wardrobe I haven't worn for ??? months.Bank Balance: In the black for the moment.
