Good morning. Yesterday was a busy day. Back to school for the children, swimming for DS2 and then we had DHD for an hour in the afternoon.
Mt phone bill came out yesterday, £13.50 so I signed in to have a look as wasn't sure what data I had, 5gb. I looked on the website and I can get 12gb for £9 (would be less with DHs discount) so going to look at that this afternoon.
TMI alert: I also spent £64.34 on period underware for DD2 (7 pairs). I bought DD3s before Christmas and said I'd get DD2 when they went back on offer. They should have been £107 so almost half price. We tried shop brand and they were a disaster! Arriving on holiday to find they had leaked drastically, they are worth the spend.
This morning the Barclaycard payment has come out so another £111.24 paid off. Off to the hospital with DD2 this morning and then need to nip shopping on the way home so will be a spending day.

We did have £470 left over but as we've switched to UC near the end of the month we won't get any help until March so I've put it away as I think it'll be needed.

Good afternoon
I haven't paid any more than minimum for the last couple of months as we have transferred over to UC. Hopefully we will be able to pay a little more off now.
