Whats my best option???

Hi all,


Due to umpteen things cropping up at once we are really short on holiday money and we go away on 5th oct for 12 nights to Menorca.

I am looking for a smallish loan to help with spending money, if need be then any thats left if theres a minimum can be used to pay off somthing else.

Anyone know of any good deals around??

Thanks in advance

Feisty!

  • How much was you looking to borrow?

    You've got roughly seven weeks to save, personally I would be shoving everything I don't need onto ebay? and any two pounds coins until then in a piggy!!, any chance of saving £50 a week from the housekeeping that would give you roughly £350, these alternatives are a lot cheaper than taking out a loan for 12 months if you can get one? Don't forget you won't be around for two weeks so use the whole of your shopping money for those two weeks in the pot!!

    Why add another thing hanging around your neck? The money you are going to use to pay off this loan, could be used for saving for your spending money instead!

    Good luck
