hi all
since my LBM the other day i am full steam ahead in reducing and eventually geting rid of my debt!!
so far i have paid off my Next account, reduced nearly all my direct debits,
today i have been in the loft sourcing stuff to sell....and ive sold a book on amazon for £4 yippee....
the biggest breakthrough must have been just... i paid for my car tax on line and used my switch card instead of my usual trick of usingf the credit card!!
i feel like a new person whos thinking before paying...tomoroow i have to do food shopping so im doing the brand down trick...bring it on!!
