  • Checking in for this week had 3 no spend days this week, but im not going to meet my challenge because its nearly the end of the month and we have so much on that its not possible not to spend grrrr!!!

    Pay day tomorrow worked out we will be paying roughly £280 off the debts, i did want to throw a extra £100 but with us going away i think we will need the extra £100 leway.

    Anything that we come back with will be going on the debt for sure!

    Will update my signitures after tomorrow to show things coming down hopefully. Its going to be slowly but surely for the next couple of months which will probably be very boring to read but it will pick up and we will be hitting full throttle.

    Im kind of regretting having all the things planned and booked that we have because that money would be so much better on debt.

    But as my diary title says im not ready to give up the good life just yet!

    Hi NSM. I'm a lot like you. Been servicing my debts for ages but never really getting anywhere with them. Finally decided now though to really push and get them gone but still maintain some kind of social life and little luxuries.

    You're doing so well so far and it's great that you're already planning how to have an MSE good time on your holiday!
