    So this should defo be £0.00 today, left my purse at home as I cannot be trusted :rotfl:

    Will check it later on, I do have a couple of things like NOW TV that add on there each month but I will pay them off straight away so they don't really count :p

  • Eurgh still spending on the CC, when will I be able to control this!

    It's so annoying, I get to the end of the month and basically all my spare cash goes to the CC which means that I am then spending again the following month.

    I have no excuse aswell which is making it worse.

  • Potentially another £100 coming my way from a Nationwide referral!

    If that comes in I am going to put that towards Christmas presents.

  • Morning all,

    Feeling good today, made it to work for 8am and have my bag packed with all my lifestyle essentials (not calling it a diet anymore, need to think longer term).

    Need to start getting back into the MSE ways, I've let things slip a bit and realising how much more I could have saved this year if I had just been a bit more savvy.

    So things that I am gonna start changing are;

    * Spend less
    * Save more
    * Fill up my coin jar and bottle
    * Use coupons, vouchers, survey earnings or sales for all purchases
    * Lose weight to fit into the large amount of clothes I have that I can't wear
    * Start looking into free stuff to entertain my nephew and niece
    * Journal everyday
    * Use up the stationary stash
    * Use up the toiletry stash
    * Have a clear out
    * Keep on top of the housework

    Dxxx
  • So plan for today is;

    * Work 8am till 6.30pm
    * Stick to my lifestyle plan (meal replacement, using up the stash)
    * Sort out purse
    * Check SBCC balance
    * Check Mums NI contributions for her State Pension
    * Check bank balances
    * Pay for work lotto club
    * Take measurements and progress picture for October
    * Dig out digital photo album so that I can send some for photoshopping

    That's it so far.

    Hey Dolly

    Loving the lists! :) Good luck on your new found focuses. It helps to have targets and goals to hopefully prevent dropping the ball.
