    Shopgirl, i try to pay a minimum of £1 on each of my debts everyday. It soon adds up and i'm already seeing results. :j By doing things this way, for once i'll actually be paying off more than the minimum a month:T.
    The peeps on here are super-friendly and very encouraging.
    Good luck in your pursuit of becoming debt-free. :T

    Thanks bigbum! Good advice :T

    I'm already loving this PAD thing! Todays payment...£1 to cc1.

    Have a good day folks!

    Hello all :hello:

    Hope everyone had an great Easter Holiday.

    Back at work now (booo) - this is my only real internet until mine at home switches over to O2 later in the week
    (saving more cash for PADs :cool:)

    Great to see more newbies gunning for the PAD challenge. You will love it guys. Everyone on here is very motivating, slightly mad and absolutely non-judgemental (more just mental, LOL) All very friendly indeed. :grouphug:

    Someone said about resenting spending as they feel as if they are cheating their pot of PAD money....Totally agree and this thread has really changed the way I budget and look at spends.
    :j SO ENJOY !! :j


    Well Siliqui, my fellow Leicester fan. How well did they do over the weekend? Very proud to have the boys badge as my avatar! Cannot wait for that extra point to get promoted. I am going to Southend on Saturday to watch the away game (not far from London, and only my second match this year, not very MSE at the football...) so hope they will do it there.
    :footie::footie::footie::footie::footie::footie:

    Thanks for the totals Hopeful. Evil female preying mantis...maybe the males watch too much football.....


    Nothing like getting paid at work to post on MSE, but I had better do some pen pushing so....

    £174.43 dd to HSBC
    £15 to the Capitalist Con Artists

    TOTAL £189.43


    Oh, just wanted to warn...watch out if you are paying Capital One daily as any over-payments reduce the next minimum dd due....so mine now says £0 due 30th April. Trying to defeat us at the snowballing - Don't Let Em Win !! :mad: I have set up a payment for the min amount with internet banking for the amount they originally wanted....:cool:
