    Nothing much to report on the money front - waiting very (im)patiently for payday! smiley_waiting.gif a week tomorrow.

    I have £50 sitting in the shopping account for next week - had ASDA shop delivered yesterday so pretty stocked up at the minute. thumbs_up_smiley.gif

    I also have about £20-£30 in my current account available to spend.

    I'm going to be as thrifty as I can over the next week and hopefully send a nice wee money package to Mr Bos the day before I get paid again which will be next Wednesday. HURRY UP! waiting2-smiley.gif

    Hi BR

    I am desperate for pay day, mine isn't until the 27th!

    Hopefully you will have a few pounds to send to BOS before pay day :)

    Hello fellow debt busters! 1sm320whiteflag.gif


    The postie brought me a fab wee letter from BoS yesterday!! Basically they have offered me a 12 month 0% balance transfer onto my card (I think as I have paid so much off this month 1sm080clap1.gif). My Santander deal ends on the 12th of June and it will be a couple of months at least before I can start on it - The interest will jump to 16.9% smiley_argh.gif,

    I have set up a balance transfer from Santander to BoS for £1700 (3% transfer fee) smiley_emoticons_prost.gif It will take up to 7 days to go through then I can update my sig. Santander will hopefully be HISTORY this week!!!! deadsmiley-1.jpg

    Obviously BoS will shoot up but I have one cc! One cc that I'm going to destroy before this baby comes !!mgyes.gif

    On another happy note - 4 sleeps till payday!!!! dance.gif
