Well I have to say that this weekend was not a very MSE one
I spent an absolute fortune...on the other hand my Christmas shopping is completely finished!
Dreading the amount of wrapping that I have to do now...:p
Got £12 worth of £2 coins over the weekend so they have gone in to the tin, think there is just short of £250 in there now
Will need to watch the pennies now until the end of the month but shouldn't have too many other payments to make...looking forward to Christmas now!VSP - £14.76 | Saving for a Deposit0 -
I had cunning plans for xmas shopping this weekend, but failed miserably... I simply must sit down now to do it online at the first chance I get - these pressies aint gonna buy themselves!0

That's for sure EB, plus if you're ordering online then the sooner the better, what with the backlog of post...VSP - £14.76 | Saving for a Deposit0

I've changed my DFD by a day, it's now 16 days as I will need to clear my loan on 1st January, still quite happy with that and will be a fab start to the year!
I need to wait until December is finished to enter my last monthly wage deduction on to my loan payments so that my final payment is correct and I don't overpay!VSP - £14.76 | Saving for a Deposit0 -

Well I am feeling really festive now! Got all my presents bought and wrapped and off to see Cinderella for the panto tonight!
Only need to get a few things in for Christmas, such as wine and dog food (what a combination!) and then we'll be all set!
Hope to update tomorrow with my last payment before the final payment that gets the account closed! Really excited now!VSP - £14.76 | Saving for a Deposit0 -
