Morning :hello:
College paid me today so sent £195.12 towards the Halifax
I a man under the £500 mark :j can't believe this card will be at zero at the end of the month :eek:
I've proper tackled this since 23rd July so in three months I'll have managed to clear over £5k :eek: don't get me wrong I got a little lucky with the tax credits underpayment but still I'm very pleased
Won't be adding to the card for my pink tickets instead I've put my avon money in a separate savings account so as soon as tickets are released I've got the money set aside just don't want my balance to go up
Aim for next weekend is to get my card to under the £400 mark
Working 7.30am til 3pm so not too bad have playgroup to set up and also have a avon's to deliver this morning. Also got someone coming to pick up some toys I'm getting rid of cause I'm getting rid of my doubters so should get £20 for them hoping to put this towards the Halifax we shall see
Feel like I've got the cold working on me had a itchy dry throats for about a week now woke up feeling rotten but the show must go on I can relax at the weekend after weigh in :rotfl: should be a lsd as kids want to make their own pizzas so we can get all the stuff from Aldi tomorrow
Got avon book collection tonight...........got £80 in orders right now and haven't left the house yet :T hopefully itll be a big order as the run up to xmas is always good xx
