    Just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone for their kind words, its nice to have somewhere to vent and have a nice community feel with people you feel you can tell it to. It's just as well as i didn't actually tell anyone i was going for the test and haven't actually told anyone else i've failed!

    Anyway, to bed with me, ready for what tomorrow will bring.

    Well done everyone on what seems to have been a productive day!xx

    TodayI will have:
    Re-jigged budget to include 'spends' - VERY exciting!!!
    Shopped in ASDA and used 10% coupons- also forgot my list! Drrrrrr!
    Moved money around to pay bills etc.
    Figured out I can spend £777 on debt repayment as of Monday, when the money gets transferred into my account- so 300 off the over draft and reduce to 100, then 477 off personal loan! Looking forward to Monday!
    Spent budgetted spends on lunch out for dh and myself. I used a voucher for £2.99 and drank water!
    Eating dinner at work, also breakfast and my 5 a day for today! (SAves loads on food bills!)
    Worked out it was cheaper to buy 3 small cheeses at 225g for £3 than 1 lg for 600g for £3! THE SAME CHEESE!!!
    Had a good day...if feeling a bit heavy and stressed!
