    £300 of Advisorys though but they can be put on hold for a mo. So relieved as I wasnt sure how I was going to pay for it.

    Well done on fundraising, shoe finding, ebay purchases of a sneaky nature and car's passing its MOT

  • I tried selling lots of baby clothes recently mostly NEXT and none sold, i was gutted. I did see a woman selling a bundle of girls clothes from next (2-3yrs) and there was about 14 items, i nearly fell off my chair, they sold for £275 - crazy. If you can afford that much on second hand why not go and buy them brand new?
  • yea I have sold loads on Ebay but never got much for clothes even new ones not worn - I find books go best. Hope you are ok, no update for a while x

    Helloooooooooooooooooo all Im back!

    I have had labrynthitis which is much nicer sounding than it was! I came over REALLY dizzy and couldnt stop throwing up. You know when the room spins when you have had a shandy too many, well it was like that but all the time. Horrible. After throwing up in the Doctors office (not my finest moment!) they gave me some tablets which have helped loads.


    15th was Payday so here is my monthly update:

    I have paid off £347.54 this month.

    So I now owe:
    MBNA - £4540
    Mothercare - £660
    Next - £140 (this went up as my sale items for Pip went on)
    Tesco - £2170
    Mum - £860
    EGG - £5186

    = £13,556 noway.gif

    So far this year I have paid off £733.54 fireworks.gif(Dont get too excited as interest isnt included as im not that clever!)


    I have spent £12.12 of my £100 crazy clothes challenge money so have a balance of £87.88 left to use.
    Debt at LBM [strike]£17,544[/strike] :eek: £5700
    :TOver £14,000 PAID OFF :T

    2020 the year of less - Less debt, less waste, less spending, less stuff, less stress!

    Well done. If thats your two month total, then you may well manage to times that by 6 this year.

    I need to times it by more than 6 if I want to clear the CCs altogether which was my aim for 2010.

    I went to Mr Ts for a change today and spent £47 which was just over the £40 a week i set myself, I did get some chicken I didnt need yet as it was half price and i dont got to Mr ts much anymore and I also got 2 packs of Cadburys creme egss, also half price nom nom nom!! I got 212 Clubcard points though as I had some coupons so pleased really.

    I also bought My, yes you read correctly My, Mothers Day present.
    one of these for £14
