My Mortgage Reduction and Savings Diary

SmlSave

Sounds like the mortgage and savings are going well Sui Dreams. :T

I'm sure you haven't been overspending too much!

I hope work picks up for you

No have hugely over spent this month is going to be rather tight I think, but don't think I'll have as much coming out next month (been a little better with money during the last few weeks). I hope business does pick up, I think my job is quite secrure but its not nice watching other people lose theirs. Fingers crossed more work will come in soon.

Well I'm trying hard, hardly spent anything this week (so far anyway). Just need to be a bit more strickt with myself from now on.

I've Come home to a letter stating mortage interest rate is 3% (4% SVR less 1% discount, which I'm sure should have expired) from 7th March. So if this months cut is passed on I could be paying only 2.5% (depending on what happens with the discount). Very happy.

Well currently £200 away from this years savings target, with less than 1 month to go. Hopefully we will get our PRP Bonus this month, if some of this can go straight into savings. Aim is to save another £500 in the 2009/10 tax year. Holiday will also need to be paid off before the end of the month but this isn't a large amount of money. Must contact the bank for an updated mortgage Balance.

and the good news is that council tax is only increasing by £4 per month
