Couldn't agree more Ellie - and like you Ellie they were especially motivating in the early and mid days when things felt darker at times.
I appreciate I probably sound as mad as a hatter but I could make anything into a milestone. If I bought a roll of bin liners I'd be working out what position I would be in when I was having to buy a new one etc.
I still ponder at the spreadsheet everyday to make sure I stay on track.

I still remember you saying you had enough dishcloths to last until you finished your DMP :rotfl:
Hey I am laughing but you totally inspired me with spreadsheets, milestones and targets and now I would never be without them :T

I didn't buy the sales stuff I'd saved in the baskets. Like you, Sazzie, I quite often do that. I tend to talk myself out of buying things hehe.
I just spent half an hour setting up my new spreadsheets. I've already put markers on for my six-monthly milestones!
Think I need to call SC tomorrow. I haven't had a welcome pack off them yet and I want to know my log in details.LBM 14th November 2014 - Total debt £8,852.54

No extra debt and a bit if debt paid off too, no doubt that has to be worth celebrating. :j. That emergency fund sounds promising too
Keep staring at the spreadsheet but can't seem to get a milestone out of it this month...aiming high for next month though :eek:Debt -it's a fight that I'm winning, dealing with debt one day at a time.

Morning
Well done on resisting.
If you want access quicker and you have your SC number you could put your details into the website and press forgot password so they email it to you.
Good luck
