    Apart from that its business as usual, have a good sunday peeps :wave:

    You can always put it in your savings til you decide what to do with it ;) As it mounts up you may decide to pay off a lump

    Many thanks CAFCgirl :beer: just wish i could get debt free sooner cos i would absolutly love to properly start saving money towards a deposit for a house or a flat :j

    Hiya peachpickle :hello: The thing that worries me though if i leave it in my savings and letting it get to a lump sum im afraid i might do something silly with the money.... like buy myself an Xbox360 :rolleyes: Stupid i know but i could see that happening cos i really would like one at the moment. Yes i know its a luxury :o, although once the money hits my account im must admit im very strongly tempted to pay more off my debt so that i dont do anything stupid with the money. :)

    Hiya Verbatim :hello:

    just had a multitude of things going on at the moment so havent really had time to post in the last few days lol

    Things are going good quidco has bad out £85 to me which im really pleased about and ive won £50 on playing blackjack again but ive only been paid out £30 so ive got to chase the website for the other £20 :rolleyes:

    me over payment has come off me loan today as well :j :j which im really pleased about :j

    so at the moment ive got a £115 and dont know what to do with it lol i dont know whether to pay off more of my debt or treat meself. Im more inclined to pay off more of my debts though cos ive already treated myself to a holiday this year would feel very guilty if i treated myself again :o

    The best news is my loan is now under £5k :j although i cant say the same about me credit card :o

    Spent £6.50 on a haircut yesterday cos me hair was looking like fuzzyfelt agian :rolleyes: :rotfl: and spent £8 today on breakfast and lunch cos i got out of bed late today :doh: !! will definatley stop that cos thats eating into me budget.

    Apart from that things are going well for me Verbatim :j hows ur debts going mate? hope ur doing well and getting them down as well :) :beer:
