    Its my birthday today and I can't afford to pay anything on my credit card until paypal money comes through :(
    I am going to get debt free by this time next year....
    On the plus side I did get 20euros and a bag towards my holiday next month :)

    Hopefully paypal money will come through later....another year older means fresh start in my moneysaving plan!! Hope you all have a good day, I even have to work late this eve (meeting about school sailing trip - free holiday, I can't complain!)

    Do you know I have never had so little credit card debt in all of my adult life.
    Feels good but strange.

    Hope it is OK for DH and I to join in?
    Money is tight/non-existant at the moment so we are hoping to be able to pay off the £301.81 B&Q card as it is our highest interest card and hopefully attainable by 9th August. We get back from holiday on 7th so hopefully we can make a bigger payment when we get back if we have a frugal holiday!
