How are you Sam!!! Look how far you have came !:)xxDebt (1/9/14) £6,702.11 Debt free (30/11/2016) mortgage port- £70,077.82 and mortgage £126,517.39 o/s currently
Debt - £17,190.83 (29/7/22) now (19/8/22) £16,688.800 -
Savings update £8400
I am going to put in a request soon with work to work only 3 days I think, Hopefully this doesn't mean I do 5 days work in 3 and only get paid for 3 lol. Cynical or what :-)
I am going to start doing ebay again but only 2 things a week.
Typically Listed and both things sunday and sold so I have some earlier than expected posting to do, although one of them has not paid me yet so hope not a time waster but could mean I will have netted £35 in profit.
I have £65 ish in cashback sites accrued so I should be able to get this soon.
If I cut my hours I am not sure in reality how much could be saved but will aim for £150 a month so new aim is 9k By December.
Hope everyone is good.

Hacked into the savings so now lower than expected.
Still not sorted the clothes / wardrobe as been sorting the bedroom - still a work in progress but starting to look nicer.
Few small ebay sales but see what that amounts to at the end of the week But I must admit cant really be motivated to do it.
Got some Lamps, Rugs and new towels in my online shopping basket to order for the end of the week to finish it off.
Need to organise making a good 3bay pile or taking it all to a charity.

OK Sorted a mass of things for charity just got to sort that out now to get it there. £bay pile under the bed in suitcases. Winter bedding washed and kitchen de-cluttered.
Still to do Wardrobe sort out and savings. Send back the rugs that are completely random and not even what I ordered. £10 voucher from argos as compo and that is now gifted to friend.
Resisting an item in the sales on-line well at least until I sort the wardrobe.
Hope all is good, savings draining away but good to have some new things as been scrimping so long forgot what new things feel like :-)
