    I know im very nervous about it Angelic! I get on really well with his parents and i used to stay there quite alot when OH was still there, but still we will be going from living by ourselfs to a house full!
    We have set a time limit, we really would like to be back on our feet ready to move into our own place again by christmas.
    I guess we are quite lucky that we have this opportunity while we are still young to get some debt paid off and get back on our feet

    There was a thread started a while on a different board about a young couple doing the same thing but they were going to be debt/mortgage free by the time she was 25 or something so you're probably doing the right thing! :j

    Hi all just 50p to Barclaycard today, waiting on a cheque to clear and also won £20 on my Virgin scratchcard! :beer: So will either pad it or put it into savings once it's come through.

    Great news about your £20 scratchy win .... Well done Congratulations-4.gif ...

    Hi all, I just wanted to check I got something right. Isn't a PaD supposed to be on top of what you are already paying out each month as an extra? Say, for example, I have to pay my minimum balance on my credit card on Monday, but I pay £10 more on top of the balance. If the minimum payment was £50, so overall I pay £60, haven't I made an extra PaD of £10 as the £50 was going out anyway?

    I think I might have got this system all wrong! :rolleyes: :eek:

    Some people find it easier to include their minimum payments , others don't ..... it's entirely up to you :D .... as DT says " once you've joined , you are here for life " ! ;) ...


    Morning all!


    angelic - don't let the b*ggers grind you down! You might appreciate hearing about someone else's experiences, but if you don't want to do it now don't let people force you into it. Get Adam to pee on them again if all else fails :rotfl:

    Well said fresian JC_goodpost.gif ....

    Good Morning all!
    Just a quick question.... I've got an item on Ebay and have had loads of requests for Buy IT Now price. I stupidly didn't put one on and now it has a bid.
    Does anyone know if I can do anything to change it or does it have to stay as an auction now I've had a bid on it?
    Thought I'd ask on here first as you lot are always so knowledgable!
    Ta! Mac xx

    Depending on how long there is left to run on it you could cancel the auction and relist it with a Buy It Now price ... ( Not always a good idea because it could put people off ) ...

    If i was you i would add the emails that you are recieving onto the auction , that way hopefully people will get in quick with a few more bids ...

    Good luck ..... Hope you make loads of money ! 92726e010b7adbeb7bea0b5ab12354d5607.gif

    That's fab Sashanut, i'm so pleased it's gone through. The competitive nature of DT will be very chuffed to be adding that to her months totals :p

    Me competitive :o what makes you think that:confused: but I must admit to a big grin weekends are usually a bit quiet:D. Well done Sashanut and thank you for doing it on my watch :T

    Really should try and find some money myself to add to the total but my cashflow seems to be getting more and more negative as the days go on :eek: Oh well you never know still 26 days to go.

    Spent a few hours listing some things on both amazon and ebay, OH and i are moving in with his parents in about 3 weeks to try and save some money for a few months so need to get rid of some of our [STRIKE]junk[/STRIKE] treasures, hopefully will also be a bit of cash to put towards the debts aswell!!

    I think that's a great idea to help you get back on track ..... I'm sure the time will fly by ..... crossfingers.gif Hopefully you will be in your new home by Christmas as planned home-2.gif ...
