    Hi all!

    Well I've been on holiday this week and pleased to say we were within our budget and the car didnt break down either, covered near 600 miles in it :T very pleased. We used a voucher for a free child on our day out yesterday and we have a family day out tomorrow at the zoo locally using tesco vouchers :)

    Sold 2 99p things on eBay and its free listings today only I've just realised so ill relist some bits :)

    How is everyone else doing? X

    Hi all,

    I've managed to break 60% :beer: Thanks to quidco for £36 (house insurance) and eBay £15. (Had been hoping for more on eBay stuff looking at similar items, but guess some you win some you lose! )

    Good news as well in sense that KIA fixed my aircon under warranty although not until day the hot weather ended! Probably don't need it until next year now!!

    Hope you all doing well, have a good weekend!

    Grr just wrote a long post and it deleted it!

    Shortened version, got £134 cheque as a tax refund so paying that in today. Sent £20 in PayPal over to the husband to pay the CC (this is from eBay sales) and we've discovered a website/app called 'you need a budget' that we are using, have a look :)

    Planning on making my sis in law a birthday present today and list more things on eBay! also going to draw up a list of upcoming birthdays and start planning Christmas on Paper (planned a bit in my head! Lol) I just hope the kids behave as I'm not feeling 100% today!

    Hope everyone has had a nice weekend!

  • Hi everyone
    I've made some payments over the weekend, so just paid another £300 off, so I'm not at 10% of paying off. Yay, that's a good start to a monday!

    I've had no sales on ebay so have relisted 13 items at 99p to see if that works and taken photos this weekend ready to list some more this week or next weekend. No more 1% paid off yet sadly but I'll keep trying and doing it to get there
