very tough month





As stated a very tough month for us financially, don't know how were going to get through it. Tobe honest its happened before, December is a tough month and this timed we more than over spent. So i'm paid the bare minimum on credit cards. Not good considering i'm trying to pay debt off.


Today my partner and i went shopping, to be honest i thought i had an £300 spare this month till i checked and paid cc's today and i nearly cried. My partner doesn't quite know how bad it is, but i'm going to have to be blunt with him. Its so horrible though as the past few months have been horrendous healthwise . Anyway we spent £58.68 and that was £6.50 worth of coupons, yellow sticked reduced food and lots of deals. In the end with came out with hardly any food. I'm being serious 6 filled carrier bags and we will have to go shopping for more food.

I know i was to post a budget but to be honest my mind is so boggled and my hormones are all the place i simply can't.

So instead i will post when i can with ideas and how were coping day to day.

Sorry for the negative post i'm just being honest and upfront.We earn less than £10k a year including working tax credit, child tax credit and child benefit. So effectively were living on less than a person on Jobseekers Allowance, yet the government are cutting on benefits and people on very low incomes. So the poverty line is widening.
