    Good morning fellow PADers

    Checked my bank this morning and £15.50 from Quidco in.:j Have

    already paid £10 to Next card and £5.50 to Cap One. Would normally buy a 'treat' with the extra money so really proud of myself. :T Hope

    to get out for walkies today at lunchtime again to keep me away from

    shops and quite honestly could do with the exercise. Have put my

    name down for a sponsored walk in May with work (its only 6.2 miles)

    but its for the local hospice as one of our colleagues died of cancer last

    year. I also managed to rope 2 of my mates to do it also so hopefully

    we will all be a little fitter come the summer. :D Have a lovely day.

    Total PAD £15.50
    Payment A Day £15 (started 17/5/14) :j

    Terri - what a bummer! No snow and you overslept. Well done for getting yourself together so quickly! Ooops, i forgot to do some work :D Although i did sort some paperwork out whilst watching s ex in the city last night - why i chose that time i don't know!!

    Naughtynat and bigbeff - keep fighting. Debt is so energy consuming. What with dreaming about payments, having nightmares about things that need paying, there's no wonder we are susceptible (?) to so many down days. I hope you can both sort things out.

    Clarissa - you are doing so well. :j Debt and weight loss - you should be so proud of yourself. You've really thrown yourself into all this - you're an inspiration ;)sSig_goodjob.gif

    drinking04.gif drinking04.gif drinking04.gif Surprise i remembered coffee!

    I've had £20 from quidco and money from my citysave savings has gone in:

    £20 Dad
    £5 gas
    £5 electric
    £5 next
    £16 insurance
    £17.21 cap 1 (nice bit of rounding up there!)
    £15 friend

    TOTAL PaD £83.21

    It's great to be back on the PaD wagon!!!

    Thank you for the totals Paybacktime2008 xx

    Happy halfway through the week everyone xx
    One step at a time ;)

    Hi Terri,

    I'm fine thanks, I have just been really busy at work etc and haven't had as much time as normal for faffing about on the internet!!

    It's a miserable £1 PAD to the Overdraft Begone Piggy for me today. T'other half has a bouncy direct debit and no money so I have had to lend him £40 to cover the bill that bounced. He's going to get budgeted to within an inch of his life tonight. :mad:

    In happier thoughts, I'm going to get my hair cut this weekend for the first time in about 15 months :j I am getting a half price cut as my friend is "introducing" me to the salon. Even factoring in my £8 train fare, it's a lot less than I would pay in Edinburgh. Yay!

    Hope everyone has a lovely hump-day (Because it's Wednesday before any of you get smutty ;))
