            Hello peeps ...

            Looks like i'm the last here today !

            Intergalactic Floozie - Sorry to hear your bad news re ; HSBC ... it's bloody awful that they can get away with doing that to you :mad: .... Fingers crossed that some more overtime will come your way soon ...
            nickynoo08 - £80.26 for 16 days :eek: .... I don't blame you for offering them £1 a week ....

            northernspender - Re your paypal funds from Ebay ... instead of waiting the 7 or more days for the funds to transfer to your bank account have you thought about getting a " PayPal top up card " ?? Apparently you can transfer your paypal funds instantly to the card and then use them straight away ... There is a " one off " charge of £4.95 for the card .. If you withdraw cash from the card then it does charge you ... I can't make up my mind whether it's worth applying for one .... What do you think ?? Here's a link to the " bumph " on it https://www.paypal.com/uk/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=xpt/Marketing/general/PPTUCHome-outside .... From what i've read quickly you use the card the same as you do a Visa ...

            Dumbleman - Hi :hello: , Good luck with your debts .... :D

            weebag - Think we should all send you a bill each next week .... so you don't feel left out when the postie calls :rotfl: ....

            Greenbynature - Hope all goes well for you with giving up smoking on monday ... :D As for the no CHOCCY days :eek: i'm not on a diet ..... yet ! :rotfl: .....but should be :rotfl::rotfl: ...... My friend bought me over a MEGA large wedge of chocolate layer cake last night which i hid in the back of an unused kitchen cupboard intending to eat it tonight ( that's willpower for you ! ) ... anyway i'm not a happy bunny ... have just gone to get it out and my daughter must have FOUND and EATEN it :mad: :mad: :mad: :eek: ... very sneeky little madame .... ( can't imagine where she gets it from !! ;) ) she is staying at her friends for the night ... am now tempted to ring the parents and ask them if they can make it a more permanent arrangement !!!!:rotfl::rotfl:

            sam247 - Hi :hello: ... Good luck with your Ebay sales ... :D

            Here's my Good and Bad for today ...

            The Good - Paid £110 off arrears ...
            Added £3 to my pot ( grand total £84 ) :D
            4th CHOCCY free day :mad:

            The Bad - Have still got the " raving hump " and am smoking like crazy because i'm still CHOCCY FREE .....:mad::rotfl::eek::rotfl:( now edited the spelling mistake !!:rotfl: )

            Anyway hope you are all having a better weekend than i am !

            Keep smiling ....

            Catch you all tomorrow ....

            my payments for this weekend are:

            £1.37 to money pot (sat)
            £1.64 to money pot (today)

            looking good! Money pot now stands at £13.12, thats just 9 days!! If I can keep this up the whole of november I could possibly have over £40 in there! That would be brilliant! I havent even noticed losing it out of my purse each day:)
            November NSD's - 7
          6. Morning
            Rounded my bank account down to a nice even nUmber and sent £8.89 to those sweeties :rolleyes: at HFC. Tapped it in at whatsthecost and have another month off my DFD! Currently at March 2012, if I get my head right I want to do this by March 2011.

          7. I am back......

            I had a month (or maybe two off) and it has not been good! With the PaD challenge out of my mind after being far too excited at clearing the Barclaycard, I have spent far too much on those things you want (and don't really need). :o

            So I just had to come back and get focused. I am going to concentrate on the Virgin CC. Even though it is 0% till Feb 09, I think I am better off clearing the card rather than putting the money in savings, which clearly is not working as I seem to spend it on other things and just transfer it back out again.

            So £3 for me today which will also cover Monday & Tuesday, as I am at a conference in London and will not get round to making the payments.

          8. Morning everyone

            Busy day for me trying to catch up on loads of things I have been ignoring but can't ignore any longer. Looks like DS and I will be having a mini break as he now has an interview at Bristol the day after Southampton. Must make sure I can get wifi:money:. 2 nights away from home thats unheard of.

            Fag_ash_lil glad I am not the only one that hides choccy my kids usually find it and eat it too I have been choccy free except for the chocolate eclair I had yesterday for a week:eek: Still a box of yummy rum truffles awaiting. I will save them until I have done all those things I should have done :A maybe or maybe not:question:

            £20 for me to HSBC CC (I hate them too Floozie banked with them 23 years and never done me any favours). Turned me down for a loan when I was desperate (perhaps that was a favour in the long run:rolleyes:)

            Have a great Sunday everyone
