    hi everyone , i have been lurking around this thread for a while and would like to join , i like the idea of pad , i have recently managed over the past three months to pay almost £1000 off of debt and i really wanna keep this up , as its the most i have paid in a long time , although its a bit annoying that each time i pay a lump off of something the bloody credit card company lowers my limit so it doesnt feel like i am getting anywhere if you know what i mean , anyway i will post tomorrow with my pad and some more info on debts am not sure how to do it all though so bear with me !
    Hi

    I'm new to the padding thing and trying a no spend day today as well as a budget of £30 for the week. Which would also leave me another £30 to PAD away. t

    Have just sold 2 things on ebay so will PAD it as soon as Paypal has cleared into my account to go towards Barclaycard.

    I like the idea of this very clever:T i'm quite excited

    good luck everyone Gx

    Hi all, just a pad of 50p to Barclaycard again today.

    I've been clearing junk out of my spare room and filing paperwork away today. There is still lots of carp but at least it looks a bit better than it did this morning. Actually cleaned and dusted my desk and everything! How does the bit under your keyboard get so filthy?! :o

  • A measly 90p for me today!!!!!

    I bought my lunch (I know, I know) but I got a sausage roll (85p) instead of the pasta salad (£1.75) that I was planning on getting.

    It's gonna be smallish amounts for me throughout the month and see what's leftover at the end

    Hi All

    Am feeling very sorry for myself today. Had a mishap this morning when I was going upstairs with my breakfast and cup of tea - caught one big toe in bottom of other pyjama trouser leg, fell (lost both tea and cereal) and landed on the toe - ouch!!!!!!:eek::eek::eek: One trip to A&E later - not broken but badly sprained and bruised. They have strapped it up and needless to say no work for me today. Will be going back tomorrow.....if I can get shoes on!

    In better news, I have booked my holiday today - camping trip to a campsite near London in August. Also booked my car hire. Excluding spending money, I now know exactly how much I want to save in my Holiday fund between now and then!

    Anyway today's PADs are £1.22 to Evil Egg and £1.22 to Abhorrent Amazon Halifax, making a total today of £2.44
