well done i keep forgetting my £2 tin, it's probably safest that way, but everytime i go to buy food (i keep my food money there too) im like oh money hehe

i hope the xbox gets even higher

lol... know what you mean about the £2 tin. I keep forgetting about it and then have this massive 'dawn of reality' thing where I realise we have more money than I thought and it gives me a little buzz for a while

The xbox finishes at 11 tonight so keep your fingers crossed for me!

Ste said yesterday that he wants all the ebay money to now go on debt instead of buying his game.

And since I am one of the [STRIKE]culprits[/STRIKE]people who give Ste a hard time over his spending and cos you've said he sometimes reads your thread. I want to say a huge WELL DONE STE. :T :beer:

Actually IA -I think we found your Achilles heel yesterday when we started talking about holidays. We might not be able to say to you have the occassional treat of something for yourself and you take any notice but something for the family.;) Did someone say the offers in the Sun start this wekend . Have you had a look? Even if it's not acheivable for this year. It would give you some idea of what to save and I think you'd manage sometime next year and you could save the £2 coins for it.

Really pleased you're less than a week away from paying Dotty Ps.:j The other day I noticed you saying about the next 2 debt are biggies. I have read your thread from start to end but haven't followed it from the beinning IYSWIM. Reading your signature though it looks like you pay off roughly £500 debt a month and wondered if you'd thought of 'thinking' of the Barclaycard as paying 2 halves so it doesn''t seem so overwhelming and the citi into paying in thirds (bit like trimesters:D )

bandraoi

If you can save £400 to pay of Dotty P's in a month, then you can save for a holiday when you're debt free.

Btw have you considered aiming to get Ste's citi below £1000 next month and then going after the Barclaycard?
I know you were going smallest to highest but if it was me, seeing that number below £1000 would be more motivating, and it's at a higher interest.

Ooh No IA, can you get the food over to MIL quickly before it defrosts? Then get right onto freecycle and see if ou can get something. I wish you were closer, I have a spare in my garage!

Sarah - chill (easier said than done and no pun intended). Its only a fridge/freezer. These things are sent to try us.

£150 cheapest 2 in Argos, you have the xbox money - £2 money (I know dp's will have to wait until next week, but that was the plan originally anyway). Or Freecycyle and no spends???

Just sorry I dont have a spare FF to send your way.


What can you do with the stuff you have bought tonight? MIL or neighbours? Can they help out?
