Morning hun and yay to all those hours, you will have a lovely paypacket in the New Year :T

Your finances sound ok to me with you having your night out and bus fares sorted as well. Sounds like you are in a really good place at the moment.

thanks i feel like i am, put another £10 in my night out envelope today, so i have £40 in it now, which will be plenty! Plus my buses are 24 hour at the weekends, so i can get the bus home with my week ticket and not have to spend money on a taxi! yay

Put more change in my [STRIKE]sealed[/STRIKE] magic counting pot today.
haha i love it!
it tells me i now have £8.10 in it, just in silver! WOW
if thats what i can manage in a week, just imagine how much i can save in a year!

I have been tempted with one of those "magic" counting tins, I have hinted so hoping I might get one for xmas

i love mine already, i got it from firebox, and used their £5 voucher they give you when you sign up.

I used my other email address and got another £5 voucher from them, don't really need anything from them just now, but have a lot of family birthdays coming up in jan, so will maybe use it then to get my wee brother something!

Ok, so i am just off the phone with the student loan company.
Very unhelpful man on the phone, telling me that they have the right bank account details on file for me.
If they do then why has is my student loan been going into the wrong account since August!?
Anyway he has guarenteed that it will be in the right account from Jan, and if it isn't i informed him he will be getting a very angry letter from both me and my mother!

Phoned up the bank of scotland, to confirm the money went in this month, and it has, so going to pop down to the bank later and take out £50, leaving the £100 in it that i need to pay to it this month.
Meaning i have an extra £50 this month! yay
