Hello lovely Sam,
I'm with you on the Payday countdown. I'm sitting on the floor by the side of the wagon with you! Would you like a little push up?
Although it sounds like you're back on there. Hopefully you're doing ok with the flea selling or preparing. Did you know that Sunday evening between 8pm and 10pm is when the most sales occur? Impulse spending to cheer people up to ease the pain of the impending start of the working week I expect!
Which gear is your little @$$ in this week?Mine needs a good booting more than a gear change! It's well and truly stalled!
This is for you,lovely girl:

The wagon never gets far away... there's too many of us sitting here on the back axle for it to go very fast
*puts out hand to help with hauling back in*
I totally empathise with fleabay stuff on floor, I've got one lot totally covering a cupboard door and another in a stack!

I've been toying with the idea of setting mini-goals and then rewarding myself with something I really want .. otherwise I do think I am going to go mad ...unless I already am and that is a mad idea :whistle:Grocery challenge Feb £107/£100-epic fail due to cake and biscuits

Not mad, Sam, only human - we all need a bit of motivation and to see progress. I've found it much easier to stick to a plan with a bit of slack and some rewards built in, otherwise I just get down and grumpy and end up spending on something silly that costs more anyway and gives me less joy.
And it doesn't need to be big rewards - just something to make you happy and show that it's a celebration

I'm absolutely in with the rewards to hit mini goals.
It genuinely doesn't matter how you get debt free or how long it takes, just being on that path and moving forward is a great thing.
If rewards will keep you motivated then I'm all in! We deserve more rewards in our lives! We definitely do!
We're all in the madhouse with you!0
