    Being in debt is such a rollercoaster. The week started on a high with my back pay but has ended with hubby being paid considerably less than he should have been.

    I've had to use my savings AND £2 coins today. Am gutted but will make up for it at the end of the week :cry: Before now though i wouldn't have had anything to fall back on though and would have used a payday loan company. Not doing that is a HUGE plus ;)

    Just loose change in a jar for me today, but have a little bit from Quidco due any time now.....
    One step at a time ;)

    Sorry to hear that ..... that's bloo*y awful ....:cry: ...

    Will hubby be paid the money that's due to him at a later date :question: ...

    I know you say that it's not a huge plus .... but at least you haven't had to take a payday loan to get you through ...

    I hope your Quidco pays out quickly for you this month ..... nothing on mine is showing as paid this month ..
    :EasterBun ..... Sorry can't find a " cheer up " smiley so will send you an easter choccy one instead !

    Keep smiling ...

    Thanks for kind words Terri - you're really so good at summing us all up. London is 3 days staying at cheapo Travelodge prices and with all vouchers in my bag. Planning christmas shopping but keeping in mind whether I could buy it cheaper online via cashback but will still have the fun of looking.

    Hopeful1 - sorry to hear about your setback but well done you for having the money to tide you over. Hope your OH soon gets his payment sorted out - such a pain when things like that happen. Your signature shows how well you're doing. Onwards and upwards or should that be the opposite since we're all about reducing stuff? Either way keep on keeping on - you're doing so well.

    Have a great week all - speak soon.

  • Morning everyone - its really blowing a gale here!

    Hopeful, sorry things have gone from good to bad, but as others have said, atleast you did have something to fall back on rather than have to get into even more debt.
