I WILL be a Money Saving Expert!

Woo Hoo!

I have saved £14 per month on my telephone and broadband bill!

I did this on Saturday. I then sat down with my fiance and discussed our debt - not so scary when we are tackling the problem together.

From searching the forum and lots of reading of the MSE site I have discovered how to make free money too. Signed up for those at the weekend and now busy clicking away at work ;)

OH is trying to give up smoking so there'll be a saving there.

I'm feeling sooo great today just thought I'd let you all know ;):D

    Ever wonder about those people who spend £2 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backward.

    Hi Cindy,

    It’s great once you start to address your debt and the challenge of finding new ways to make and save money.

    It maybe worthwhile posting your SOA so we can look and see if there is any other areas you could save. When you aiming to be debt free by?

    Let me know how you get on and keep positive!
