    Nice one Taxi. How is everyone? I realise for most of us we feel like we're not making the progress we'd like to but we WILL get there.
    CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J

    A whole £1.70 to add for me :o Paid it off the egg card.......talk about baby steps :rolleyes:

    I too have a temporary "lull" in proceedings while OH gets himself a job sorted, but will be back "full steam ahead" just as soon as I possibly can be!!

    A couple of payments are made next week, so that will be a little to go off the totals, but probably not much to report until after payday, sadly.......bah!!!

    But YES, we ARE getting there!!

    £1.70 is better than nothing Hypno. I think pre-lightbulb moment days if it had been me then I'd have been tempted to spend it on something I really didn't need.

    Just pooped in to say hi,
    Nothing new to add to my totals until the 15th when I get paid. Work has been really hectic lately so I feel I have taken my eye of the ball and spending a bit more - nothing too drastic, but getting back into bad habits - popping out for milk and ending up buying cake. :rolleyes: Will soon have 6 weeks off - :j :j :j so plenty of time to stop faffing and make some money. I really need to have a good clear out so will probably do a car boot sale and need to put some books on Amazon. My plan is too keep so busy that I don't notice how much it is raining and run off to the travel agents to book a last minute deal. :rolleyes:
    Looking at everyones totals I think we have done really well. :beer: :T :beer:

    Hi guys, not made much progress but a £100 to add that has gone into the savings account, so my total for the first time in month's might start moving. Good to see everyone doing well.
    :j Live on £4500, £2531/£4500:T 101 in 1001 (52/101):j:beer::j

    My car loan finishes in October (last payment), although I still have a long way to go after that is it bad of me wishing it was October already so my loan is out of the way?
