    Lloyds new figure is at £4255 payments have been made, now i am waiting for £40 ebay £30 amazon and £10 Music magpie so that will take me to £4175 just trying to find ways of getting through the next 3 weeks without spending. I have about £400 and want to try and live on half of that I'm sure it is possible.
    Another problem now we have a wedding to go to in a few weeks and have just been invited to the whole day, I had planned something for the evening but now I need to find something else nothing in the wardrobe as i have gone down 2 sizes help!!!!

    Well a friend has said she will come shopping with me she knows im on a budget and will hunt out a bargain for me on the outfit front.
    Sold a book on amazon today so thats £5 profit so only £170 to go. Just logged onto Lloyds and it is only showing one of my cards do you think they have lost the other one or someone has paid it off for me, I will try again after 9pm as they update payments after that time.

    Hope you find something charming and cheap - weddings are a very expensive business, aren't they.

    Well done on amazon sale.

    How long did it take for mm to pay up?

    Paypal money arrived this morning so £40 to Lloyds, all payments have hit card so overpaid by a massive £945 this month but I bet they still charge me more than the estimated interest. Will have to get my A*** in gear otherwise I wont make any extra money next week .
    Have a good day all its nearly the weekend

    I'm hoping for a card to appear on my Lloyds online banking, but thats a new CC @ 0% that I applied for last week! Damn they're slow! They're the only company I know that don't give an automatic answer online! :mad:
