    Morning All!

    Found a battery for my watch! Got it from a Jewellers in the end for €5 :)

    Also stepped into the store with a mid season sale on and got myself a nice set for just €12! It was half price. I had, of course, sought it out online first so I knew what I was looking for! haha

    Hi ebberybun!

    Finally it's the day after payDay when my s/o's and d/d's come out to differing things, so...

    PAD today is £500 to ISA, £50 to regular saver and £2 into Mad Catter giving a grand total of £552 please :)

    Hope everyone's having a better week than me. Having trouble with the soon-to-be FIL and his drinking and am thinking that my savings may well have to go towards moving out soon. Ugh. Oh well.

    Stay funky!

    I have caught up at last!!!

    Big Hugs to Angelic - as you know my DH has been a complete !!! and since I last posted nothing has changed! :mad:

    He has purchased more things off ebay and the things he is selling he does not have enough of so there is a back log!!

    PAD from the last few days of £2.47.

    I am happy to be counter next month if no one else volunteers! - might make me post my PAD's every day!!

    Hi Guys

    Hoping for some views on my PAD's (Yes I know I have to make them everyday!!)

    My debts are as follows:

    Barclaycard - £7759.44 - 24.9% (closed account so interest staying the same)
    Amazon - £2305.40 - 15.94% & 6.95%
    Abbey - £812.40 - 0% until June 2010 then not sure of interest
    Paypal - £591.35 - 17.47%

    Total - £11468.59

    At the moment I am throwing all my PAD's at Barclaycard and you can't really see a difference as the balance is so large. The balance was a balance transfer gone bad - ie I missed a payment so lost the 0% - they reversed it and then it happened again and I didn't dare ask a 2nd time!!

    So I'm thinking I could throw it at Paypal and hope they either increase my limit (currently £610) and/or let me do a BT from Barclycard or is that too much hassle as it would have to be done in dribs and drabs. Not sure if this will work as they reduced my limit down from £800 a few months back.

    And as for Halifax they are a nightmare, last month their balance reduced by less than £1.00 - no charges or spending, just the way it worked it out so maybe I should clear them first.

    Don't think I can apply for more cards to BT as probably won't get them and need to sort a mortgage very soon and already DH's spending will impact on this.

    Any comments/views welcome
