    I love it when someone else gets spurred on, it makes me do the same lol.

    I logged onto ebay this morning, and found my cot had sold so that's hopefully being collected later which will be good.

    Good luck with ebay and dooyoo, and stacy hope you get your oh on board somehow to reduce your stress.

    Good luck Jen , there is an offer on quidco for a free £10 for getting a free trial of Time Magazine if you haven't done that already. You still playing bingoport too? Vouchers will come in handy at christmas!

    i am going to have to query my time magazine thing as i still have no cash back but received the magazine yesterday so just have to wait till its been 7 days.

    To do with the cc situation a few months ago i applied for some 0%cc's and got refused, the last time i applied was 15th march, do you think its safe for me to apply for another one by now to see if im accepted?

    Maybe try one that is a normal % on purchases but just 0% on balance transfers? Might be easier to get? HSBC have an offer on balance transfers at moment on a new card.
