    DH spent most of ours already. Doh! He wants to save the rest.

    Yep, yep. I can totally see that happening.....

    Every time we get a large sum he always has plans on saving some. Always. Think he has managed to save a cent yet?

    Oh mine is so spent that i reckon i wont even get to see it!!!

    first thing is first- bedroom suite for DD-$750 this is a must, as she currently has a matress on the floor, no drawers... and i want her to have a pretty big girls room!

    next is food shop- about $200 in Aldi, then about $250 in coles/safeway- i plan to buy at least TWO of everything we need from Aldi, and then just stock up on basics, and things like sauces/veg oil etc.. the stuff that you forget you need till you actually need to use it and its not there!

    Bills- i havent added the total.. but i want to at least pay off elec & gas so that i can have payment plans.. and be ahead! then water/phone. we dont have any debt which is great! just bills.

    then, if there is anything left, we get to split it! for me, i need clothes desperately.. like, yeah, thats not even a luxury.. its a need!

    we dont need anything for DD2..and DD1 is pretty well set, as we just had her birthday, so yeah. i might layby some spring clothes shoes, and leave a deposit, but she isnt in desperate need of anything!

    dp will probably spend some on his car....

    and then.... we should be right money wise. we'll have a lot more FTB this year, so hopefully we can keep ourselves in top of everything! rather than being so far behind
