No Money Mummy to Millionaire Mummy!!

I am so lucky with the ID thing as my OH actually works at the solicitors (no discount though sadly!) it means he can take my ID in and bring it home by end of day, as you say I would worry about posting it.

I will have to pay the Estate Agents fees which were £1600 and also the solicitors fees which were £1500 so in total it will be a little under £3500.

Oh oh oh typo!!! They want to charge me £320 not £3000!!!! Sorry for scaring you all! LOL!

lol - not much of a difference there! that's the sort of difference that raises my blood pressure at work lol

i picked our solicitors as i knew it was somewhere where OH could drive to easily so we don't have to post things.

our estate agents are charging us just under £1k but the solicitors fees including stamp duty (another rip off) is about £3 1/2 k if i remember correctly. Probably a good £700 more than i was expecting. i really should have pushed getting my training contract all those years ago, it would have saved me a fortune now lol

Pips_Mum

Sorry LT, will be more careful typing next time!
Because I am only selling half the flat its too low for stamp duty, the fees are so high :-(

Just been flicking through the preview and theres quite a few bits I can get him, a few homewares buts I can get as Birthday pressies for peeps. Also a few Maternity bits that are good price NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I am not making an announcement yet just planning a little in advance!!!

oh i was just about to get excited on your behalf, i'll have to wait a bit longer before i can start knitting for you. My friend like Next's products and got some lovely lampshades from there which i wouldn't mind but i'll never get anywhere when they're in the sale, didn't even think about it really i'm just so not the typical Next shopper

Pips_Mum

Put those knitting needles away LT, but hopefully not for long!

To be honest Mr Next would probably be horrified to find me wearing his clobber!! I Love the childrens clothes though. Everything is so dear though that I only really buy in the sales!

Ha ha ha! I just did the "how tight are you" quiz on here and got.................................................

You are 57% tight
"You're frugal, you're thrifty, but on this site that's a little bit fab.

Get me being all MSE!! :money:

Go you I might have to see what it says for me lol.
How do you book a sale slot?? Ive only recently got a next account. Mainly to order stuff in sales and for the kiddies aswell (promise to be good ) Want to get the boys some bits in the next size up. And also need some zip up tops for them so would be good to nab some in the sale....

How close are to you being under 10k!!! Woo hooo. Bet you cant wait to be in single figures (well with some 0s after but you know what i mean!!)
