poppy_the_saving_cat

Time to organise my life and get out of debt. Currently single and in debt to the tune of around £21000, had my wake up call this morning when i got to work and my card was declined for a coffee had to borrow the money off a work collegue. Tomorrow i will raid my piggy bank and buy a flask and start making tea and coffee for work and also packed lunch every day instead of just once or twice a week! xx

Hi everyone x Thankyou Brie for the welcome x
Not much money available this week until pay day on Thursday. i cant pay anything by card so have counted money in my piggy bank and it totals to £14.38, i need some to buy a cheap flask (not sure how much they are in Home Bargains £5-£8 im thinking? ) so about £6 for food this week which should be doable as ive got stuff in freezer and plenty of pasta and rice, should have enough milk and bread. I travel to work by bus so pass paid up until end of month ( had to give my car up, couldnt afford it ) Im going through my money properly this afternoon properly xx
