Good payments Becs!
Rubbish about the club, but like you say, think of the money!VSP - £14.76 | Saving for a Deposit0 -
That's the problem EB, I'm becoming less and less capable! Luckily the owners stand by anything you say or do which is good.
At least by the time this debt is paid off, no-one will be able to say that I didn't work for it!Debt at LBM Apr 2010 £28,767 Debt free as of Nov 2013 :j0 -
And that's something to be proud of. Not that I would care about that if only I could win the lottery... :-)0

Hi Beccie,
Glad you're managing to make such good payments, despite the yuckiness of working at the club. Will you get much of a break over Christmas, or will your extra jobs continue? I'm in awe of how much you do each week, I'm exhausted by my one job!Little monkey born November 2012:jFroglet due March 20160 -
The extra jobs will continue - in fact more than normal probably, Dec is good for pub work.
Needs to be though - I've got so much social stuff going on as well, I'll probably be spending it as fast as I'm earning it!Debt at LBM Apr 2010 £28,767 Debt free as of Nov 2013 :j0 -
Hopefully you'll get lots of Christmas tips

11th Feb so a while yet - or 61 days to be precise
Most importantly there's still 2 pay days to go before I go to give me a chance to save up that £500
I'll switch to minimum payments only for Feb and March so that I have plenty of money to spare, seeing as I will have to take into account the fact I won't be working any extra jobs for that time and I will still have to pay my rent and bills even though I'm not here.
Hoping though to come back not having spent too much money so will be able to make a nice big over-paymentDebt at LBM Apr 2010 £28,767 Debt free as of Nov 2013 :j0 -
Becs i know the feeling about work, at the moment working in a supermarket is rather tiring, i know customers can be a bit stressed but some of the comments aimed at the staff are really hurtful, what happened to the christmas spirit [think most of them have drunk it].
Love reading about all the small payments made but loads of small payments over time make one large payment, have started to do this myself.:j Debtfree and and staying that way.:j3-6 month emergency fund, No.61 £140.000 -
I agree Amber!
Small payments again of £1 each to loan, o/d and Borneo.
Will most likely be on small payments all week as I'll be spending a lot this week! Out tonight for a Thai meal with people from the last place I worked, my Xmas work do on Wednesday and then my friends bday on Sat (and that is going to be an expensive one! :eek:)Debt at LBM Apr 2010 £28,767 Debt free as of Nov 2013 :j0
