Hi all

Hope everyone is doing OK. I am just popping on before I head off to read my book club book (long way to read, book club is tomorrow!!)

I have killed off my ISA today as the interest rate was just annoying me, so I will pay off the holiday stuff on my credit card and then throw all other payments at my Virgin card and sod the stupid low rate ISA - it means I will start to see my total debt actually go down and won't have quite so many variants of the same thing in my signature

Roll on tomorrow (pay day) - my account will look sooooooooo [temporarily] healthy between the cash from my savings and my pay - woo hoo

*note to self - make all the payments very quickly; don't get overexcited and blow it all on a handbag

Morning all! I've got itchy fingers as I've not paid anything off a debt for awhile. Going to have a look at printer/scanner/copiers tomorrow so I can start doing some Mystery Shopping, though I guess I could use the ones at work and as my computer at home is not very reliable getting on the web, it might be my only option. I do have some money to use from amazon sales, but saving that atm for the printer to make even more money. Also haven't had my haircut so could use that £27 to pay more off Virgin CC...It gets bit addictive doesn't it, paying off debts?

I love this time of month!

When the direct debits start coming out, my current account balance is in the black....happy days...

Then soon enough it all crashes back down to earth, but until then.... life is good.....im off to see if anything has paid out of my accounts yet....

tirlittan

Ah, but soon you'll be paid on 15th like me and then end of month is even worse....

CAFCGirl

i'd forgotten that.... but thanks for reminding me LOL

should hopefully be sorting out getting our old flat deposit back today, so that'll bump the figure up quite a bit too....

DH's first loan payment has come out so 136.56 to add on! woohoo

Couldn't resist it. Just paid £40 off my Virgin CC as there's £46 on the way from amazon sales..

excellent stuff Tirl'

our food shopping has just arrived so freezer is super stocked! So we should be fine for the next fortnight (only a small freezer), and just need fruit and veg/lunch stuff top ups.
I'm going to need to get into the habit of taking lunch now..... its gonna all be a shock to the system, early morning starts.... taking lunch etc, but feeling positive.

Now I'm off to get my deposit back!
