    dotty - hope you feel a bit better today (((hugs)))

    day 15:)

    yesterday i spent:

    food - 2.97
    petrol - 30.61 (after using 5p coupon)

    off to do a bit more shopping today, strangely my tax credits went in the bank this morning, a day early??? have no idea why this is!

    paid council tax this morning online, this is not counted in the challenge.

    yesterday was spent mostly browsing and picking up more tips and hints. still waiting for cheque to arrive (starting to bug me now) and the post seems to be getting later and later every week!!!

    Am all ready to pay my mum a chunk off when she comes back from spain on the 26th:)

    Mornin JD, im an early bird myself today...more bad news im afraid - instead of being in credit today and being able to withdraw £40 to last me until Friday, the damn bank have taken £60 out of my account in charges leaving me -£19.66 - so things not improving at all...what to do? god only knows.

    Hope your cheque arrives today hun..fingers crossed.

    Hi JD - wanted to say thanks for all your tips.advice on the PM yesterday - really appreciate it...

    Feeling so so today, neither bad or good - just determined to get this budget working for me - think im focusing too much on debt payments and not enough on day to day licing etc - need to get the balance right so im going to be working on this for next months budget.

    thanks for the support and hi verbatim hows u?

    Hey JD - our Tax credits went in early this week too - weird...

    Well done on the low spends.
    This year I'm getting organised once and for all, and going to buy a house with my wonderful other half. And that' s final!

    Current Pay Off Target : £1500 :mad:
