Hello,
Well yesterday was an interesting day. Took my car to the garage as it has an oil leak, turns out it needs a new oil sump £300 :eek:, was a bit gutted but as OH said we are still doing really well.
I've realised that this is a trigger point for spending for me, when something like this happens, I feel whats the point may as well go and just spend. On the postive side at least I now recognise this and can keep myself in check, (and come on here if I am tempted).
On another postive note, even with that, we are still able to shorten our DFD to 28th August which is great.

!Just read through your diary. You doing fantastic!
well done on recognising what triggers your spending!
what site do you sell your books cds n dvds on??0 -
Hello Linz, and thanks for your comments:) I used sell your books and zapper, I put everything into both and then chose the site that gave me the most for each item, took a little longer but was well worth it.
Sell your books are quicker at paying, and they pay directly into your bank account which I like.

Hello,
I have my car back all fixed, no oil leaking out of it now
I'm now in the 8's :T so pleased to have still managed that this month, still have a bit more money to come from book sales, so will be making a few more payments before the end of the month as well.
Really looking forward to next month, as i will be seeing a 6 and will have over 50% of the debt paid off. Very excited.

Hi,
Have just updated my figures still on track just £8906 left.
Payday tommorrow, we had a good bonus this year which will be paid tommorrow so that will help to, so should be able to do another update.
We have been really pleased with how we got for books CD's etc, some didn't go for much at all, but it soon adds up and better than just having them all sitting there doing nothing.
Been having another de-clutter so have a few more things to ebay so that should help too, we are getting there.
