    Hi,

    The car insurance is just a renewal so thats the best deal I can get on it.
    I will def look into the parking.
    Yes all the interest has already been added to all those balances.
    The £12.50 is for the opticians I have a medical condition which will get worse every year guaranteed so will need new lenses each year so I put money away to cover them.

    Thanks

    Then hit the vanquis ASAP and cancel the card. Do you have PPI on any of the loans and cards?

  • Hi

    Just a few ideas :o How far away from home do you work? Is it possible to cycle to work or walk to work or have you checked that using public transport (train or bus) and walking the remainder of the way would be chaper (maybe you could buy a season pass for fair). Maybe you can car share?

    :confused:

    I need my car to be able to do my job so need to keep that, i've used the snowball debt calculator its good to see how easily they make paying your debt look. Think I might try sticking to what they say as it looks like it would save me money in the long run.
