OK, here is my list of action:

Go over budget again, particularly for this month.

Sort out spending diary (spreadsheet best for me)

Cancel all the unnecessary items from budget that are on a regular payment

Speak to cc companies

Sort out grocery budget

Look at £10/day challenge

OldStyler's board for top tips and inspiration

Cashback websites, etc

Check out whatsthecost.com

Cancel plumbing and heating insurance

Cancel gym (fingers crossed I can before contract)

EBay/Car boot - bits and pieces for that

Find bite guard for teeth so I don't grind them down to pegs

Any other things?

It will be a busy week

Welcome Miia! Some great advice on here already. Just had a thought about the giant breed dog (I have one too plus two others - cost more than me to feed!) - have you tried wholesaler for the food? I get mine online here - I buy enough at a time to get the cheapest price and it saves me £30 or so on a month's food. Depending on what you feed it might be worth a look. Good luck!

Ah yes, they are lovely. I used to use them as she was on Nature Diet and Burns but tbh she wasn't that keen on Nature diet so is now on Butchers which she is literally wolfing down with biccies (can't remember which). I'll go and check them again.

I make her treat biscuits - no more DentaSticks when I can make plaque free biscuits. Another thing to check in to is the joint tablets....

Yes - my head is about to do this -> :eek:

I will do back patting when I've ticked some things off the list

Here's a free sample of dog food to start you off.

If you go to the freebies board and search for dog food there's loads of places too send off for some, not much but every bit helps it along.

Hi Mia, have been lurking and just wanted to say well done you are really motivated. I have been inspired since i started coming on here and it is more than a little addictive, especially reading all the great advice and tips.

Thanks - I AM motivated. I know that I will also have poo days but I will deal with those when they turn up.

The advice has been fantastic.

Hi there

Very well done on your journey so far. You're doing great.

My problem is I go in fits and waves with this money saving malarky. When I'm in the zone nothing will make me deviate BUT, and this is the dangerous bit, I sometimes get BORED!! That inevitably leads to two steps forward and one step back.

I so hope you keep the focus. This website has been the most liberating website EVER.

Cheers
