    Just used £90 of amazon vouchers from free bingo sites to pay for most of an order, so just added it to my total :)

    Wow, some good payments being made! £25 to MBNA today from me. Every little...

    One more DD for the month, and then I will be making my monthly overpayment. I'm hoping that this payment will take me below £9k..which would be amazing
