Hi guys!! So this thread has had a bit of a holiday, but now it is back and full of energy I hope!
So, why not let us all know what small dfw thing you have done or plan to do today? It could be something like not using the tumble drier, or taking packed lunch to work instead of buying sandwiches etc...
All these little things form the good habits that will help us on our journey to becoming debt free, and to staying that way when we eventually get there!
Today I will:

Today I will:
- make a storecupboard/freezer meal for dinner - chicken casserole I think
- not buy coffee in my break at college this evening - will take a flask instead.
- update my spending diary
- check online banking
- not increase my debt in any way

Hey,
Very small things for me, but:
~ Working from home so I can make a storecupboard meal for lunch
~ Do my Pigsback clicks
~ Hang out washing so I don't use the tumble-dryer
That's about it for me

hi all
today I have/will,
-take lunch to work
-have a nsd (or i might need to pick up hand cream, but that'll be it!)
erm that's all i can think of so far hahahah0 -
*I have done my Piggy clicks, in a bit of piggy limbo, haven't had any big points back in ages! my balance is static apart from ct's.
*Brought a packed lunch.
*OH has the car, so he dropped me off. No petrol costs to me today! For him, yes, but that's his budget and he isn't into MSE. - Good too cause i can't walk to shops in lunch half hour (in unsuitable shoes!) so avoided temptation there!
*Done Quidco clicks. Losing momentum with those too! Balance is static, waiting of loads to pay out in next couple of months but i will have pennies by jan/feb! I have not been a good little clicker!
*Took an Mystery Shop for the weekend.
*Returned some shoes i was going to get for a weding next week. Will wear something i already have in shoe cupboard. I have loadsa shoes and who says you can't wear black shoes with a cream dress. As long as you have a black bag too, eh? Reassure me please!!!!??
*Aiming for a NSD today!I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....(it's part of my charm!)0 -

Sounds fine to me! And depending on the style of your dress, wearing it with black opaque tights and all black accessories can look the height of autumn/winter chic IMO! I usually take the view that nobody's really looking at me at weddings, and you'll only get wine on new shoes...
*got a lift to work off boyfriend
*hopefully getting one home but if not have trainers in bag so will walk
*have tin of soup for lunch which was marked down due to slight dint in it
*bought cheap cigs and have only had 2 so far
*tea will cost nothing
*anticpate spending nowt today0 -
I have some extra cash so I will be putting a little more on top of my payment to one of my debts. Shrinks it that little bit more!:T0
