I have got PMT I think. Either that or I'm coming down with something."I wasn't wrong, I just wasn't right enough.":smileyhea97800072589250 -
Sammy - thanks, i'll contact the credits peeps and let them know that I'm now on SMP alone!
In other financial news I'm going to ask the bank to give me a £2k overdraft so that I have a potential £500 each month to dip into if we need to. Am hoping we don't need to but I think I'd be reassured if we had a cushion of some sort!!! I was going to just pop anything and everything onto the visa card but I think the interest rate on the overdraft is better (if I'm really savvy, I'll pop it onto visa first, get 50+ days interest free and then dip into overdraft to pay visa off:D)
I have a serious question for you all
: Is a laptop/netbook a necessary expense??? (if not, can I wangle it as a serious expense so I can get one so I can be in the same room as Wayne whilst surfing?) DFW Nerd Club #545 Dealing With Our Debt

Cat personally I think its an unecessary spend if you seriously can't afford it and it will come from the overdraft.I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change And breakaway. I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change and breakaway ....

My head knows this... I know that a laptop/netbook is a want rather than a need! Never mind.... I'll treat myself to one in the January sales when they'll be cheaper (hopefully)!DFW Nerd Club #545 Dealing With Our Debtnever attribute anything to malice which can be adequately explained by stupidity, [paranoia or ignorance] - ZTD&[cat]
