why dont you set aside say £50 to treat u and dd to a day out so you feel like u are treating yourself and then be sensible with the rest? Or keep this money for the debt and use your car boot money for treats?0

i know mm i AM going to write a list of the things i want the decide what i want most. i really want an outside tap so i will get that. i am not sure when the cheque will arrive and i am not spending it till i have banked it!! i feel i should save the cheque and continue with my dfw journey as i am learning so much about making saving money and i think i would stop if i was debt free with no motervation.
i am hoping the cheque for the high school musical tickets arrive tomorrow!!! they are driving me made.:j Proud mum to Jade age 10 years and Baby Ellie born Christmas Day:eek: with a broke heart Proven to be a little fighter and battling on with her heart condition :j
