Just been through my banking online to see if I could tot up my OP's.
Total is £224.12 since May. Not a huge amount compared to most, but seeing as my girls are very small still and money is limited I'm pleased with it. It knocks off at least a month off our mortgage - one month closer to the goal.MFW.....Apr 33 Aim - Dec 260 -

thank you smlsave
still waiting for my mortgage statement. Anyone would think they didn't want me to see my balance getting smaller?!
nsd yesterday. groceries delivered thursday leaving £40 left for the next fortnight and some still left from the last fortnight that will be OP'd.
My freezer is full, lots of milk to be used in the fridge and the cupboards are full. I think I need to run down a little before christmas shop! Although, at least if we get snowed 10 bags of rice and pasta will feed us for a while
Not sure of plans for today. Want to take the little ones out, but we can't decide where....hopefully somewhere not too expensive!MFW.....Apr 33 Aim - Dec 260 -
Just checked the accounts - £30 OP left over from groceries. £40 left for the next fortnight for milk/bread(2 loaves already in freezer) and fruit and veg. Think thats achievable. If we run out of crisps I'm not buying anymore (there must be 40 bags in there!) but dh is a crisp fiend.
Always feel so positive after an OP MFW.....Apr 33 Aim - Dec 260 -
Hi too too, can you hide some of the crisps from your dh , I have seperate places to stash kitkats so the locusts that are my children don't eat them all in one day

Did someone mention crisps
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort Mortgage Balance = £0
