Down to £27.29 in my account (& 90 pence in my purse) to last 3 days after today - no more spends expected today. So that's £9.09 per day - easily do-able.£30,000 £7059.17 DMP consisting of...

I'm currently trying to catch up on the 1% thread - I think this is a good way of breaking it up and a great way to look at it. Far less daunting than looking at a big scary number!£30,000 £7059.17 DMP consisting of...
