Getting out of debt for GOOD

Hi, well done on the bonus and congrats on the baby.LBM 26/10/17
Total debt at LBM - £15421.47
NOW DEBT FREE AS OF 30/07/190 -
Morning all!
Feeling very precarious this week - done my food shopping, but I have a grand total of about £13 to get me through to 15th!
Done the food shopping, managed to keep it to £40;
- Slow cooker pork (last night, MMMMM! DELISH!)
- Pulled pork hash
- Leftover pork stir fry
- Sausage and Mash
- Shepherd's pie
- Southern Fried Chicken
- Breaded haddock and chips
Fingers crossed that we can make it through to next week without needing anything, then a little 2/3 day shop to get us through to payday (hurry up payday!).
Heating has come on this week, as it's started to get a little bit chilly - don't think that we have done too badly to get through to November without needing the heating on. As it's our first winter here, I will be keeping a sharp eye on the meters so make sure that we aren't going to eat into all of our credit we have built up!
Just counting down now to the end of December - come on maternity leave!!
Having said that - I am working on the next quarter which gets paid in Feb, so realllly hoping for a good bonus then, and currently tracking to get to about £3-4k. If that comes through, I will be the happiest lady in the world
Feeling pretty sorry for myself today as I have a cold and I am getting to the "heavy" pregnancy stage which is a bit boring!
Hope that everyone has had a lovely weekend!
Love LBC0
