Not too much to report.used my 20 pounds asda voucher for the youngest twos pe trainers.
Got a pair of current or almost current sized football boots on vinted (due to arrive this week)
and have bagged a save ten pounds of a fifty pound spend coupon at sports direct in today's mail on Sunday. I rarely buy a newspaper anymore so it's turned out well. Gonna use that for AstroTurf for eldest and some normal trainers for him or maybe me as mine are in pieces.Jan 18 Joint debts 35,213

So many school.shoes, trainers, footwear
My cards are battered ....I'm not mentally capable of doing the maths till another day ....I used my asda voucher and my mail on Sunday voucher so I have been as mse as possible but between all the kids we seem to have needed and probably spent so much. I'm off to sit in a a dark room for a while. On the plus side I think that's almost all of the new school.year sorted.Jan 18 Joint debts 35,213

The word pending is plastered all over my bank accounts and cards. My head is going into the sand for at least a week and I will declare at the end of the month. More bank work done today. Last lot I think before I'm back doing my regular job. Reckon I will have earned a couple of hundred extra this summer by doing bank so can't say Ive not tried.Jan 18 Joint debts 35,213

No one can say you are not trying, that's for sure. DD's have got everything packed / ready for school, but I need DS to look at his and tell me what he still needs (other than a haircut). It will probably involve me going through a list or we will get to July next year and then tell me he has gone through the year without a ruler or something similar.Me, DD1 19, DS 17, DD2 14, Debt Free 04/18, Single Mum since 11/19
