The ultimate incentive to get debt free, can I do it by New Years?

Dinah93

Found out my dooyoo reviews I did yesterday don't count as they were in speakers corner, bit annoyed about that as I think the vast majority were in there and I just didn't realise! Haven't done anymore today, but did a few surveys, and got another mystery shop, for a supermarket this time, min £1 spend and £11 paid for the job, sounds good to me. Have also read all my notes for the pub one tomorrow night, although OH is being all ill and man-fluy so might end up taking my brother instead!

Hi Dinah,

Just catching up after a long weekend off and you've dropped another grand or so!! At this rate I'd definitely go for the aniversary of LBM1 rather than Valentine's, you just haven't slowed down or plateaued at all!! :T

Nice weekend away Tete?

I got my credit card statements over the weekend too, so have around £400 to reclaim spread between two of those. 69 items currently on ebay, and we're working on getting more items made up as listings ready for the next free day.

LBM1 anniversary is only 6 weeks away, 4.6k seems sooo much to shift by then!

Hey Dinah!

I cannot believe that how fast you are getting through you debt you must be so happy

Im just waiting for a rebate from the gas company and then ill be under £500 on credit card one, which I want to shift by the end of January, also have a lodger moving in at the beginning of Jan so that should help, its a mate from work so will also give me some company while my oh's away which is good

Every time I read your thread you've dropped another £500 I wouldn't be suprised if you are debt free by the anniversary of LBM 1!!

It was my OH's birthday at the weekend, first one we've spent apart in 7 years so im feeling a bit sorry for myself today

enjoy your free meal, and I hope you find that book!

Hey Dex, that's rubbish about your OH being away on a birthday

Book has been found, OH is wrapping it right now. I've been very good tonight and done 31 tracks on STP and OH has taken loads of ebay photos and done a few listings. I also did my trial assignment online for another mystery shopping company.

Just been reading on another board that someone got a council tax rebate and the cheque bounced - hope that wasn't my council! Would be bad news for my rebate cheque and my job security!

Nice weekend away Tete?

Weekend at home with friends over from Ireland and up from Leeds, was lovely apart from feeling the need to entertain and go out drinking in arctic conditions way too old for all that now! Hope OH feels better soon and I'm sure the cheque won't bounce - that would be shocking for a Local Authority!!

I know but there is someone on one of the boards on here, I was reading it last night, and their cheque bounced off the local authority! Even worse my cheque has the printed signiture of someone who left 5 months ago!

Been having problems with getting on some DFW posts again, really weird!

Good news, I got I capture the castle back from my grandma (who loved it!) back on monday, so I can take it when me and the mister go on holiday :j

Hopefully you're cheque will be alright, I thought I read that it cleared? I think my eyes are making up things of their own.

Dinah93

Probably another cheque! Although HSBC credit the money for interest purposes 4 days before it actually clears - which means they can take it away again!

Found another mobile phone last night, sadly I dropped it two weeks before I got my new one and the slider mechanism is not so much slidy as thinly held on by a few bits of wire, but it's still £8 if it's non working and £17 if it is so will have to send off for an envelope for that.

When do you go on holiday Cinny?

Cinny91

We go a week on friday. Done a bit of a meal plan, getting bits from approved food to keep costs down. Big tub of smash for £1 *taps belly* and found some Famous London Store blueberry jam for 60p for my breakfast while we're away. Doing a collection from them on friday so I'll have to behave and not gobble all the jam.

Fingers crossed about your cheque, hopefully it'll clear with no problems! Well done on finding that book too!

Books have been flying off the shelves this last week, am sending about treble what was going a month ago. Most of them are used so surely Christmas can't be the cause?
