Thank you Hopeful, for linking me to this challenge. I am a collector of piggy banks so I will name them for individual debts and pop something in each day then tip them out every 3 months to pay extra off.

Glad you came over

I couldn't be controlled enough to wait 3 months, but i suspect you have more will power than me!

I'm going to bank my change jar tomorrow and add whatever's in it to hubby's orange account. Then i am tackling my Barclays loan which i have decided will be next focus. It's around £7000 :eek: but i need to get an accurate balance.

:eek: Oh my goodness, that's hideous!!!! That's over triple! I do not understand these companies - they reckon they keep increasing the prices because it's costing them more to buy the fuel, yet

1) They report more and more proifit each period

2) Their cost has been coming down for a while now


Why the government sit back and let this happen is beyond me........:mad:


Well done with the nabbing of the £2 coins though

Thanks snugglepants
Have calmed down a bit now but still peed off!! Surely they should have noticed my payments weren't enough to cover what we were using each month so why didn't they put it up months ago!!:mad:
and OH has snaffled £10 from my purse and now owes me £2!! :mad: As long as it's a £2 coin I'll be happy tho lol

It certainly makes our daily payments even more pressing _pale_

I totally agree. Have just clicked the link also and signed the petition. That would be really worrying if they ahead.

Makes me more determined to carry on with the overpayments now. More than ever

Hiya Hopeful, will sign and pass site on to everyone I k now as this sort of thing is happening all the time:mad: too much power is being handed out which can be used by any unscrupulous debt collector etc:mad:

Well rant over

Thumbs up to everyone who has signed the petition. It would kill me to give these 'people' the opportunity to take my home :mad:

So - £2.50 off orange. £1 to my savings and £2.00 to Cap 1.

Have a good day all

Morning all,

Hope everyone is ok, didn't post yesterday but put 50p in the pot, not much but every little helps!!

I've got no money left in my purse so will have to have a look at bank account online in a bit and see if there is anything left over from the budget!

Have a nice day x

Not posted for a couple of days as had a fairly carp end to the weekend

OH's birthday on Sunday and we were out for the day. Got home to message from his ex wife as her car has broken down and she is stuck. Could we have DSS to get him to school etc. No problem as we had already expected this for other reasons.

Whilst on the phone sorting this BIL phoned as OH's Mum critical and hospital not sure if would last the night.

Phoned ex wife back and changed everything. 3 hour drive to hospital. Mum sleeping but very poorly. Spent last two days visiting and now back home for work but dreading the phone ringing. Mum rallying and being a cantakerous old so and so, but still not great.

Well done to everyone posting and sorry for being so down.
