    iwanttosavemoney2008, well done you, you can class it as a big or little thing, as long as you are doing something debt busting then we want to hear about it!

    1. I have done some clicks this morning (around £2 worth)
    2. I have gone into work to do some overtime
    3. I have checked my online banking (it didn't look good, pay day on wednesday)
    4. I collected all the loose change lying around my flat I counted it at over £4! I've put it all in a box to be added to and not opened until Christmas.

    This is my first ever post on the forums. Do all those things count?

    Thanks Cleosmum,

    I'm in rainy Somerset. Just off in a minute to view our favourite house on the list, probably be no good as it says no pets, but its been up for rent for 5 or 6 months now so you never know. Should be completing on 11th July so not too long now. Finding it hard to get motivated with my packing today!!

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    I have:

    - Stuck to my shopping list in Asda
    - Had a NSD other than the food shop
    - Said no to a takeaway tonight - homemade curry instead
    - Checked my online banking
    - Started a budget sheet
    - Paid CC - minimum payment untilpayday then will make an overpayment

    That's it so far - have a good weekend everyone x
  • Afternoon all! Hope everyone's got lots done today :D

    I just had to share this - tried on a pair of old size 10 jeans earlier whilst sorting stuff out, got them done up (just), and was feeling blue about them being so tight, checked the back pocket and found a tenner! And I haven't worn them for 5 years! :j
