NewDebtDiary-same old story

Hey, im 23 about to pop out a baby any day now! Been reading the forum for past couple of weeks trying to use what i can to help me and husband be debt free and get a deposit together.

He has a great job i was a student but now im bout to have baby so im nothing really!:o

anyway we dont really have any out going except debts and mobile as we are staying at my parents till we get ourselves sorted. therefore all money from hubbys job can and will go on debt. there is £6000 in credit cards and £10,000 in overdrafts.

anyway had the worst week on ebay ever! havin gmade a couple of hundfred quid in the beginning this week i have made £1.74! but obv when he fees and everything come out its cost me about ten pound!

anyway the payment a day on here has helped me most and my capital one stands at only £165! now so hoping to get rid of that via payment a day as soon as possible!
