Hi everyone, sorry not read back yet but need to update before I forget.
August OP of £600 thanks JCL.
Been spending far too much on groceries lately. Nappies, wipes and formula I can't avoid but baby food at £1 a pouch- no more! I have about 10 Ella's kitchen pouches in the cupboard and I am determined to buy no more. Must be organised and make my own. Also use up some of the cupboard stuff. Only making two bottles a day now so formula lasting longer too. And pretty much sorted for both boys clothes for autumn, winter and spring now, including school uniform, shoes etc. So no need to buy other bits at the supermarket. So this is how I hope to keep up with OPs. Although I intend to buy a few Christmas Savings cards at Asda so will budget for this too. Last year I filled up two using my cash back credit card, just before their bonus deadline. Got the bonuses (and Capital one cashback in January) and they paid for my asda shopping until March2016 MFW OPd £2000, 2015 MFW OPd 3000 then bought new bigger house with bigger mortgage.Beautiful boys born May 2011 and October 2013

#47 reporting in with £200 for May, June, July and August.
Have managed to up our OP DD to £400, so should have a new target of £3000. Which should take us closer to 10 years to pay off than the current 13.
Obviously don't check in here often enough, but do like hearing what's happening in the weekly digest.MFW #66 - £4800 target0 -
