Morning all
We treated ourselves to Chinese takeaway last night because DH had done so well with sales this week.
They were up £1k on October 2009 and £500 on last month which is great......................he is however, very grumpy. Probably because he is so tired so I will give him a buy for that one!
Paniced yesterday and thought I was £1000 short for bills, mad scurring around and thinking all sorts, when I remembered there was £900 in the bank -DUH
Ebay has been pants - closing today will not be great but it is something.LBM Feb 2010 £62,700 Total Debt Jan 11 [STRIKE]£49,403.84[/STRIKE] £47,530.32.

Well done on the extra sales ..no wonder he's tired.
glad you found the money you thought you'd lost.0 -
Yes good news that you are doing so well on the sales. I expect you are both tired and the benefits haven't reached you yet.0
-
Oh some of the benefits are spent already.......................but thats a good thing as it means less for us to find.
Also because I knew sales would be up it means I am able to pay more off business debt than normal so again not a bad thing. Next year hopefully increased October sales will go towards personal debt!LBM Feb 2010 £62,700 Total Debt Jan 11 [STRIKE]£49,403.84[/STRIKE] £47,530.32.
