  • Not cashed it out yet tea and was planning on trying to get to £50 in amazon vouchers by next Christmas as I move up the levels. I've a stacked of receipts to load now but won't do until new year to maximise the points. They've got to be done within 2 weeks, so still got a bit of time.

    Welcome Mum, as I've said to others it's not a very interesting diary but I'm hoping it will keep me on the right track.

    We have to go to Rochdale soon to do something we didn't expect to be doing NY Eve but apart from that we have no other plans. Sometimes we make a special meal, sometimes we have a takeaway, sometimes we do nothing - we're doing the latter tonight which is fine by me :)

    DS likes to stay up to see in the NY so I'll be doing that with him. Hubby doesn't usually make it to midnight lol and DD is unsure whether she'll be in or out at the moment. I never have a problem staying up late until I have to, so will probably be wishing the night away so I can go to bed :rotfl:

    Really looking forward to getting to grips with my money over the next year and I'm glad I made the decision to start this diary when I did and not hold out until the NY. I feel I've already laid down some thoughts and ground rules for myself and I know which direction I'm heading so all that's done with. It's now just a case of getting on with it :D

    Thank you for all being so welcoming over the past few weeks and for your NY's wishes. I hope 2019 is a good one for everybody, health wise, personally and financially :) x
