    Anyone interested in 2 tickets for Bon Jovi on Friday night at the O2?

    I bought them when they were on offer for a fiver each, but these are surplus and I can't use them! lol. They're lower tier, block 103, row Y, seats 94 & 95.

    Seems a shame for them to be wasted and I seem to have messed up selling them on seatwave! lol. Only gives me an option to send them out or have them collected, but they are electronic tickets! I don't get it!

    Pad of £220.06 and that's the high horrible interest capital one cc paid. :j whooopeeee!!!! Hopefully hear from Ry@nair this week about our reimbursement and once that's paid to us the Nationwide cc will fall dramatically. Finally feel I'm getting somewhere!

    Wahooooooo!!!!! Congratulations!! :D

    hey all!

    Well back from holiday last night and back to earth with a bump :( I wish it was home time already!

    Two bits of great news from holiday
    1) BF proposed - and I said yes!! It was such a surprise but we are so very happy.
    2) in true MSE style - I did all spending on CC - totted up I spent $660 and had money set aside for £500 - so only £160 over budget across 3 weeks and celebrations! - well pleased!

    So to start off as I mean to go on PAD £500 towards halicrap CC.

    now have a very big incentive to get my CCs paid off :)

    I'll try and catch up but may take me a day or so - hope everyone is well

    Congrats MinniMe - mostly on your engagement but also on the not too bad overspend and the huge PAD.

    Hope it is OK for me and DH to join you? We have been waiting for a card bill to arrive as it is first on our hitlist so pleased to know what we have to blast. Off to my internet banking to make our first PAD.

    How do i subscribe to the thread?

    Afternoon All

    Now since joining your little DFW gang a while ago I've been quite rubbish at posting on here, I have been padding here and there but the posts on here and other threads has been seriously lacking but I hope that what I am about to declare will make up for it and allow forgiveness.

    Deep breathe.....

    TODAY I HAVE PAID OFF MY LOAN! :beer:

    5 years of misary(sp?) and I have finally done it and 6 months early, never in my wildest dreams did I dare think that was possible, so chuffed thats freed up £311.16p a month and boy does my budget need that.

    PAD for today is £2189.60 final loan payment plus - wait there more - £80 (extra shifts at 2nd job) to my isa and £20 to the cc plus 2x 1.50 to reg savings.
    So my total for today is £2292.60 :T

    Now where to puit the extra 300 quid a month, ponder ponder ponder, only cc to go.....

    (goes off to work new budget out):)
    OD 0.00/300 Car 200/7000 CC 0.00/82
    Emergency Fund 0.00/5000
    Other 0.00/30000
    NSD 2/10
    :eek: Skintos!
    I need to make some money from somewhere :o

    Wow - that is a seriously good PAD. Well done, you must be seriously chuffed with yourself. It is things like these that keep me going through the long tunnel
