Stressing today. Feeling teary and stuff. Can't seem to shake it off today.
Need to be strong.
Just got to try and throw myself into my work or something.

Hi, that's for stopping by. :wave:
Are you familiar with Tilly tidies? Tilly has a diary on the mortgage free wannabe board and we all stole her idea. Lol if ( for example) you have £437.22 I your current account, you move the oddments into savings. This would mean you've saved an extra 22p and Tilly tidied your current account. If I an afford it, I would move the £7.22 into savings and I call this a Tilly tidy deluxe!
Tilly explains it much better than I do. It's a great way of inching your savings up with little effort.
I checked and I haven't been given the offer for listings. never mind, I will get some more up anyway. Thanks for the heads up though, I will keep checking.

I have heard of Tilly Tidies but not came across the explanation in Tilly's diary yet. I took it to mean; tidy your bank accounts and o/p your mortgage, and to actually tidy down the mortgage account, say I had 136.648.00 balance on mortgage, then I would "tidy" £149.00 making new balance 136,499 - (I always try to make it £1 less than the £500) this was just my take on it, but you have put me to rights, thanks.:)


As for the bay offer, they don't seem to email/announce the new offers, its normally just at the bottom of the page where you see your 20 free listings for the month.;)

Yes, Tilly does explain Tilly tidies better than me, but at least you're on the right track now.
Yes, I keep checking the bay and the bottom of my listing 'entitlements' but still nothing as yet.

Lots of number crunching to do...unfortunately, lots of expense too.
