  • Well short n sweet Update:
    • I'm not going to make my NSD target this month BOOO
    • Cheque went in from BT yesterday YAY
    • Charge of £35 from the bank for failed DD BOOO
    • Another NSD YAY
    • Dance class tonight YAY
    • Cahoot are sending me my SOA finally YAY
    • Still no CCA from HP Company YAY
    • Didn't win the lottery last night BOOO
    • Found £5 in my car YAY
    Lots more YAYS than BOOOs though :D

    Hoping my leccy goes down to match British Gas & should get the statements from Cahoot at the weekend, going to ask for me money back and that they credit the loan account, i already know of £300 of charges so that will be a big help on my target. I've managed to find/win and get back borrowed money from my loan so tomorrow i will be able to pay £240 off my mortgage debt :T

  • Hey just catching up - I love the idea of pole dancing lessons, but they're so expensive by me! So I'm just sticking with my gym for the moment.... lots of Yay's there! Such a shame about the £35 DD charge but that'll soon be a thing of the past!! Well done on the iceland shopping as well! I've slow cooked a curry to freeze got a few days worth.. Should do a stew as well that's always a cheap and filling option!! I got paid today and have a budget of £32.50 a week for entertainment and food so need to think of some cheap ideas!

    Hope you have a good weekend :D

  • Not much to report today.

    another NSD yesterday so i might match my 10 days in Decemeber but i'm not going to hit my target of 12 this month.

    I have dancing tonight which I am looking forward to and FINALLY a start date for my new job i just need to do lots of hours to earn some money to save as I will have to go a week with no money! which is a bit rough!

    Still no word from the HP company no CCA so I will send a cheque for my SOA I have sent them the second letter saying about not processing my data but they haven't responded

  • Well done on the NSD - January must be a hard month for that!! I'm aiming for 12 in February myself - hoping for more though!! That's a pain to go a week without money... but also nice to have a week off :) Will you get holiday pay from the job you are leaving??

  • No unfortunatley. so i'm working loads of extra hours now, i'm shattered but it will keep me a float. I managed to pay £352 towards my abbey debt so hopefully that will be gone in the next 2 months and then I will be able to make my mortgage payments at the lower rate for a bit, get my record up to scratch with them and apply for a fixed rate.

    I'm sorry i'm being a bit naff on dropping in to everyones diaries but i am working 12 hour days at the moment and theres 2 hours journey to that so i'm going home straight to bed! i will be better and catch up with you all at the weekend promise!

    Lol don't worry about that! It's not meant to be an added stress, just a friendly support when you need help advice and a big virtual group hug!

    Do be careful to not burn yourself out though, I am sure when you have time spare you will drop by.
