Immoral_angel's Debt Diary

Hi I_A - you probably already know about this...but Boots have got Huggies nappies on 3 for 2 (including the big packs!!) I got 3 large packs of nappies for DD for £17.92 instead of £26.88 - should last DD all month!!! Thought it might help your shopping budget

If you already know about this (and I'm the one who's been in the dark:rolleyes: ) then just ignore me!! Also, I have a £2 money off voucher for Pampers, but they don't suit my DD - if you want me to send it to you - PM me!!!

I love Boots, we bought some of the Huggies stuff on 3 for 2 the other day, we also had a voucher for £1 off Huggies which the cashier tried to scan but then said it wouldnt work because it was off a single pack and couldn't be used in conjunction with any other offer....fair enough....so she gave us the voucher back to use next time. When we checked the receipt though, the £1 off HAD worked - not only that it had come off twice (she tried to scan it twice), and I've still got it in my purse to use again next time!

We use tesco nappies for both the girls. A small pack for both of them is £3.97 and we found we were spending soooo much money on 'posh' nappies it was mad! Thanks for letting me know though.. will definately check it out and see if it works out better value.....

Hi

I'm sorry you're feeling low about the debt and progress at the mo - may be worth reminding yourself that 8 months ago you had £11000 worth of debt, and now you have about £1600 worth. I suck at maths but that's gotta be some stupidly high percentage of debt you;ve paid off, right?

You're a legend and an inspiration - keep your chin up and keep doing what you're doing x

IA - please don't beat yourself up about what you managed to pay off this month, it's an unfortunate habit of us humans focussing on the negative rather than the positive. Why don't you go back and read some of your early diary entries, just to remind yourself how far you've come?

BTW - I recognise the avatar but can't place it

Hey, I-A there was some funny quotes from Red Dwarf at the party last night. I was LMAO. You got a mention as well........

Thanks for the kind words everyone. I think it was more the tiff with Ste that brought me down but we've made up again now and it's just Ste being stubborn as usual lol. Love him to bits though and I probably annoy the hell out of him most of the time always going on about debt and money. Poor bloke, how does he put up with me!

Have updated my sig and it looks really good to not have a massive £1400 debt on there and I should be grateful we were able to pay that off! Considering we've paid off over 3k JUST in lump payments (not even taking into account minimum payments...) since october I have to keep reminding myself how well we've done!

Aww gutted that I missed it! Ste and I had an early night instead....

Toto

an early night? Is that code for 'which drawer did I stick that test in'?

I've been dead busy working this week so didn't get to say well done on the job, well done on the childminding, well done on citi, well done K for weaning and well done ash on being cute.

See, not been a bad week after all has it sar?
