Positive thinking for June - what are you going to do?

GirlRacer_2

I love this. I'm going to:
- try to succeed with the June Challenge
- take lunch to work 4 days a week
- e-bay like mad to get rid of all my junk
- shop on-line so I can curb my food budget

Thanks Hypno for starting a June Thread Went looking for a June one earlier to keep me on track!

Mostly about the same as last month for me but having it down in black and white is great!

In June I WILL:

* Make £364.70 in the £10 a day challenge to make up for not reaching the May Target
* Accept any overtime offered (rarely happens but might over the next few weeks, fingers crossed)
* Take £10 out on a Thursday to last me the week (spends for myself)
* Have at least 3 NSD's over the week.
* Spend only £10 a week on fuel
* Play about with the cc's to transfer as much of balance as possible so I'm not paying as much interest - means more off the debt!
* Pay at least £500 to my Credit Card

Going to print that out and stick it beside my computer to keep me going!

This month I plan to...

-Keep entering plenty of competitions (and hopefully win plenty of nice prizes)

-Go on exercise bike / cross trainer at least 4 times per week.

-Put the rest of the money in the ISA.

-Start that diet properly (while I'm typing this I'm eating pizza!!!!! ).

-Keep taking lunches / snacks from home into work (saving a fortune!).

I get rid of a credit card this month!! All debt finally paid of on it, just loan to clear now!

Get my saving accounts up and running.

New cashback card for doing food shopping - should really help with seperating food spending and budgeting it all.

Stuff thats not selling on ebay is going to charity or freecycle - on declutter mission!

Brilliant thread Hypno

In June I am going to start a new life !! I have separated from my husband (whom I still get on well with) because he is a severe addict of gambling and drink and is/was really violent when he lost money / drank.
I have a beautiful new flat.
So I am going to enjoy my life now without fear.

God - this all seems so dramatic but is so achievable now............

But the basic things I am going to do are

Walk to the beach (500mtrs away) and then run a mile along the prom and back three times a week :eek:

Stick to my new budget.

Try to lose 12lb before going on holiday at the end of the month :rolleyes:

Take packed lunch to work 4 times a week (why do most of us say that ? and not 5 days ????)

-Walk the dog more - we both need it!
-Make at LEAST £10 a day on ebay from the "great post wedding declutter" by the end of the month.
-Take lunch to work at least 2 days a week (I'm on customer site 2 days a week and taking lunch for a 170 odd mile journey just doesn't appeal).
-Put together the wedding albums and order them.
-Get hubby to put up frames in the bathroom with black/white wedding pics and 3D frames.

great thread.
i am going to shop local, and walk there. I have to carry the shopping back then so i carry not buy too much.
Plant the bedding plant I bought reduced a few weeks ago which i have revived.
Moved my 0% card to cover my overdraft until november saving me £16..interest per month.
Organise myself to have drinks for the kids in water bottles when i pick them up so i do not buy them icecreams on their walk home from school.

I am going to really get off my backside and challenge myself to do something different everyday.
Oh and shamelessly borrow everyones ideas.
Thanks in advance.

Excellent idea! I need goals or I tend to flounder a bit. I want to:
-use the car only a few times during the month and walk more
-make an effort to find inexpensive or free activities to take DS to
-save enough money in grocery budget to pay for family bbq in July
