    Well done! So close!
  • As at 11 August 2020 the balance is £55.00
    Just about to post an eAuction item for £25, so when that arrives we will have a super tiny balance.
  • It's like buses another eauction item ready to post. Balance estimate 28 English pounds  :)
  • It sounds like you are doing great @The_frugal_fairy! I have just come across your diary and it sounds from your initial post like you are very motivated to achieve your goals, so best of luck! 

    I am just about to start a good de clutter myself, hoping it goes as well as yours.

  • @regularsaver, I am really surprised how fast the mortgage shrunk. We have been focussed and although there have been bumps along the way having the spreadsheets and diary has helped so much.
    Thinking as the mortgage spreadsheet is almost complete I will start a renovation one.
  • As at 14 August 2020 the balance is, 🥁 roll, 20 pounds only. <3<3:)  
    Couple more eauction sales needed.

  • Thank you it is exciting 😁
  • As at 16 August 2020 the balance is £15.00.
    Decided to close old current accounts that are not used. Bingo another £5. I think my Boots advantage card and nectar card balances added together are greater than mortgage. Definitely feels like a Hare and Tortoise scenario. Dd would like a celebratory meal when mortgage is paid off, l think this is an excellent idea. 🍰 will be needed.

  • Next activity today is sort the packaging I have kept to recycle to use for eauction items  :)
