Too much debt drama!

Just reading back through my posts and I wanted to update my previous "to do" list...

I have actually completed my last ever self employed tax return and they have sent me my rebate already

I have also sent up to date metre readings so am only paying for what I'm actually using.

Ticking those things off my list feels great! It's the small things eh?!

Small things indeed

So my little envelope app is all updated after payday yesterday and I'm enjoying seeing the energy bars all at their fullest! Had a little MSE victory against the previous energy supplier to the flat and got 12.76 off the bill they sent me...long story and I won't go into it but they are a nightmare and kept insisting I owed them money even though they had sent me a final bill saying £00.00!!! Anyway - it's all hopefully over now.

I have bought myself lunch only once this week, with one pre planned meal out on Wednesday eve. In tonight for home cooked dinner - no takeaways for me thank you!

Will be away for a few days next week and again everything pre paid so hopefully a good money saving week next week - keeping food and utility bills down.

Have a great weekend everyone and keep your purses at home!! x

So I LOVE my budgeting app! It is really making me think about everything I spend on. On Saturday I had an eye appointment and needed to pick up a few things for a friend's child's birthday, holiday etc. Each time I bought something, BEFORE I went into the next shop I recorded the spend. It really showed me how quickly it can all disappear!

Yesterday was a NSD which felt great and I was very productive getting the flat a bit more in order since ex OH moved out. It's generally always quite tidy but I have acquired a lot more space recently now all his stuff isn't there and I spent time yesterday moving my bits and reorganising draws. It means that it doesn't look quite so sad when I open a draw and it's half empty but also I have loads more space! I love it!

Today I have spent £1.20 on pop and £5 at the post office posting my friend's birthday pressie. Expensive but not too bad considering the gift and postage combined cost under £10. Lunch was from home and dinner shall be from stores and I've got enough petrol in the car too...

Then it's holidays

Yipeeee!
