    Thankyou so much - I was getting a bit disheartened and this just gave me a little boost :)

    Dincanada, have just read your blog through and I'm really inspired, you've achieved so much in such a short time. Don't get disheartened if you run out of a bit of power occasionally, step back, relax, deep breath and start again, you can do it😉

    time to start again with this and remembering to post.
    We have had some unexpected bills in the last week including needing a new roof at $50,000 week!!!
    I had a few days of thinking we couldn't budget for this at all and then looked back to see how well we had done so far this year. Time to look at the figures and make a plan.
  • Just joined for some tips on dealing with my own debt which isn't even that much compared to others but it's still worrying!

    Read your blog and you've done fantastic with it all!:T

    I hope you continue to update and keep it up x:)

    another $20 earned in amazon vouchers from swagbucks - going to use these for Christmas gifts. This brings the total to $135 this year - I never get too many in one day but I have started to check before I sop if I can go throughout the swag link to earn more bucks :)

    I checked the spare coins jar and was chuffed to see we had $118 in it - left it in there and emptied hubbys pockets to add a few more coins :)

    Checked the freezer and think we can get away with only shopping for things like milk, fruit and veg this month. I am going to try to spend no more than $100 and use what we have in.
