Listed some gym equipment and my car on Facebook marketplace. lots of interest in the gym stuff so hopefully it will sell over the weekend.
Went to Asda, Tesco and lidl and spent a total of £35.35, only thing bought not on my list was some orange juice at 50p so I think I did pretty well. Kids needed swimming money for school aswell, had to borrow 30p off my youngest as I had no money all last week so was counting change out for basics and I only had a £10 note this morning lol.
Will be putting £40 of desil in my car on the school run.
Other than that not much else happening hereDEC GC £463.67/£450

I'm on 14nsd now, I had actually planned to grab milk and bread today but we are all sick so will just make do.
sold something on eBay for £27 I will see how much postage costs and send the rest to my credit card.
I had a holiday booked with Thomas cook! we had looked at cancelling it but we were going to lose pretty much everything we had paid, when we get our atol refund (god knows how long that will take) we will be paying the £1350 off a credit card.DEC GC £463.67/£450

Today I hit my target of 15nsd, I do have to pay postage on my eBay parcel but that's coming from the sale so I'm not counting it.
I also have my £100 emergency fund, but someone gifted us some money so I'm going to add the emergency fund money I had to it in order to fully pay off one of my bigger credit cards.
Still not used the drier, but that might be hard now given the weather is suppose to get really bad.
I haven't had a single takeaway since the 23rd august! for us this is huge! we would have 2 sometimes 3 a week when I'm unwell and I have been extremely unwell but just threw something together. I will be enjoying a wee takeaway on sat night!
My chest freezer is almost empty, will take a few more weeks then I can clean it out and start filling it up.
So far this month has went really well. I"ll update how much I've actually paid off on Monday but it's pretty impressive. MY car is still up for sale as is a few other bits and bobs. if I sold my car I could clear another cards off.DEC GC £463.67/£450
