    I am declaring at 130.71 this month, so managed to pull some back and have updated my signature for the first seven months of this year.

    I am going AWOL for the next two months as I am retiring, moving house and DS3 is going to uni in September. I am having a couple of weekends away and he is going to stay in our new flat for a few weeks while I tidy some loose ends here.

    Good luck everyone and see you in October

    July total, 19 no sale days, looks like I am in budget,
    but on my new system of counting all sprnds, £59 over, and spent money online a lot of days.
    Do I need it or just want it.

    I am ending my GC a day early as I popped into B&M for a washing up bowl and saw that several of the items I was going to buy in Aldi on Friday were cheaper so I bought them today.

    Declaring £578.26/£525 including booze or £115.65 per week. My goal is to get to £90/week.
    Save £10,500 - £2673.77 - 25.5%
    Pay off £7000 - £1743 - 19.4%
    Make £2021 extra income - £99.75

    Really late to this thread. Managed to come under again by £50 odd, despite doing a last minute shop in Aldi on the last day of the month. However, this could have been even less, as I was buying bits for granddaughter and also some new vegan bits that I hadn't managed to get in Aldi before. Hopefully, can reduce this further.
