Part of me really wants to go shopping and just have a month off but then part of me wants to get on with saving for a house ASAP

Im deffo having a break from the hardcore saving september as it doesnt feel like im out of debt as im still doing things the MSE way. Nothing wrong with that i know, but i forget i can actually afford to see my friends or go out with OH places now.
So im going to do myself a budget for September with spending money included. Then October i will get back into hardcore saving.

Hi Maria,

Well done on all the Boots bargains, that was a great shop. I seem to get rid of my vouchers then just get more as i always tend to spend money when using my vouchers, everything i want is over £5, never mind.

Brilliant news about your ISA, you have done so well especially as you only work part-time hun. You should def spend more time with your friends and family having fun now you are debt free, i don't mean go mad and spend silly money going out, but so many restuarant 2 for 1 deals at the moment you can still have a nice time but spend very little.

Afternoon all,
I had a fab day today!:j Work was lovely and quiet for a change....i even had time to get a little bored!:rotfl:

Then went to post office to post ebay parcel and boots AGAIN! I wont bore you all with the details of my shop this time i will save that for the boots thread:D but i got

x2 no7 glossy locks
x2 mitchum deodrants
x2 TS hair products
x2 TD facial products
Total of £38 before savings I paid £1.05!!!:T :T
That wont be the last trip either as i still have 3 more vouchers to use! Im stocking up as much as possible for these proces it will save me a fortune when we move out!

Also good news for me is that 02 at last have broadband in my area!! So we can now get internet dirt cheap and have wireless!! ....Which means i can then buy a laptop and do the online courses i wanted to do! But that involves spending out £500 on a laptop as theres a certain one i would want. Only thing is i still need that damn cambelt & water pump changed on my car as its really overdue. And really i should do this first as my car is more important, and if it was to snap i would be in the poo needing a whole new engine!
So im going to do some planning tonight of how to budget my money this month.

Right, im off to check CB sites and comps:D

Afternoon,

Well i had to CB payouts today £3.38 WPT & £8 Quidco.
My £10 Debenhams voucher came today so i now have £20 debenhams :j So this weekend i can hopefully buy a nice new top from Jane Norman. Yay!

Still not decided on this months challenge as i ended up giving my room a spring clean yesterday, throwing out unwanted rubbish to make room for my huge stash of boots goods.:D :rolleyes: I have no room as under my bed i have cutlery, plates, bedding etc for when i finally move out.
