Good Morning

Pay day today, haven't worked my money out yet, I've been so busy this week, but should be able to put some in savings.
Going food shopping this am, as a bit like Old Mother Hubbards, have got a voucher for £5 off £25 spend in Sainsburys, I've also been sent a few from Tescos £5 off £50, getting a few of these lately So once i've sorted my list i'll decide which I need to use.

Hubby home this afternoon, yippeeee:j :j :j :beer: :beer: might mean a takeaway

Have a great day everyone - keep it low;)

Good grief this has slipped back! I stopped posing on here because whenever i didn't post I didn't spend but whenever I did post I ended up spending. You know - allow to buy a lettuce and spend £13 at ASDA.

SO I am not posting what I will spend in order that I have an NSD

Good morning kizzy, peb and everyone :hello: :hello: :hello:

Peb - I agree 100% with you - posting on this thread does control our daily spends - I used to go to Tesco for four pints of milk and end up spending £10, whereas the mere action of posting on this thread now makes me think twice before any non-budgeted spending - even on 'bargains'. That's why, in my opinion, this tread is one of the most important and inspirational threads on this board.

And to think, it started with those three small words, from the original founder - the now legendary 'moozie':

'Keep it Low'

In fact, those three words enabled 'moozie' to tackle a mountain of debt, that would have led most of us to the brink of despair. I, personally, have followed this thread from the beginning - I know I don't post everyday, due to work commitments, but this was one of the first 'daily spend threads' that I joined, and it has totally changed my approach to spending, so don't forget, everyone, it only takes a minute to post here, and that minute could be the start of a 'debt-free' future.

Anyway, back to the 'spends' - I did pay for my new bike, yesterday - £87.99 (£2.00 less than I thought :T :T ). I have to wait until Monday, to pick it up, though, but I do need to buy some lights (does anyone still sell dynamos?), a helmet and a lock and chain (although I think I may have an old lock and chain in the shed) so I will need to spend around £20.00 over the next couple of days.

However, based on bus fares (£2.40 each way) or petrol cost, I have calculated that the 'investment' on the bike will pay for itself within three months.

No other spends anticipated, today.

Kizzy - I hope you enjoy your afternoon - don't worry, we will understand if you are too busy to post. :rolleyes:

Have a great day, everyone :wave: :wave:

Had car insurance payout for the non fault accident back in January. Have paid parents money i owe them, and will pay off one ccd. Have "allowed" myself a hundred pounds to buy anything i want... naughty i know but decided i should treat myself a bit considering the pain and inconvinience i had to deal with...so chuffed to pay mum back and capital one...hears hoping they do what some have said and let me have a balance transfer 0% to put some from the other two onto !
