Well as part of my £50 a week I finally have my
1. Financial ombusman package ready to send back.
2. Going to tranfer my cc balance as i have been rate jacked 14.9% to 31% unjust I think I have a 0% deal with BOS fo 9 mths so this will make me clear this how I dont know but one will try how many bootsales lol
3.a letter for a tax code checking company ready to post
4.I have a hospital plan so will put in a claim for 3 nights
on the price checker front I now have 2 tesco vouchers wait for it 51 p and £1.81 better in my pocket than theirs printed and ready to use.
hope all is well how is ev1 else doing with the challenge ,i thought about added the extra £50 a month in tax we ae getting however it certainly doesnt cover the fuel bill for getting there so technically no better off ,supposei could start walking to work can only imagine the kids whinging all the way therebut think once they hit high school i might start that .Only 3 more years lol
Hope you're not paying the tax code checker company anything as the tax office will always check your tax code for free. You can ring the helpline or visit your local tax enquiry centre (the Revenue's best kept secret) and talk to someone face to face. Take a paylsip with you and they can check the code being used by your employer against the code on your record and also explain why you are on that code. I'm assuming you're not on the standard 747L at present?Every penny's a prisoner

Found 1p
Also used a voucher for £10 off £50 for my shopping so after delivery saving £6.50 so adding £6.51 to my total.0 -
well scraped another £8.12 overcharged for sainsbury changing the sex of my dog who is called poppy lol.
cc transfer completed whoohoo to 0% for 9 mths that will save me £900 as i will be clearing the balance rather than just paying the interest I have set the payment up to take the set amount and will hopefully pad it down .Will add that to total monthly .
now waiting for a rainy day to top up sing bingo and withdraw my £30 whilst playing in the freebie room.

hi jetcat my friend used the same company and got a rebate of £90 cash in hand they took 40% of total rebae .so pleased you wrote this think they use the frightener that if you are on the wrong code as in not paying enough they wont let on to the tax man,also previosly when i checked wasnt getting deductions for union subs and nurse registraion they adjusted tax code but rebate was spread over the year.can i ask what you mean by the standard 747L thanks elly.
I will check my tax code your way though and if it works out i will complain to the rcn about ripping off members as it is them that are sending out the leaflets .So finally debt free and it feels amazing however continuing here to stay debt free.Next declutter house and body and finally swim under that waterfall x0 -

Extra £14 a month due to tax threshold change!! I will add this to my total for this month
£19.12 including dropped change I have found. £10980.88 left to go.
Have yet to be funded with the overtime money which will also be deducted from the dribblers advance. However the good thing is this year I can deduct £14 a month due to the tax threshold change!!Debt at worst: £33000 (Feb 2011). Present debt: £25610 (Apr 2012)

Hi Elly,
I am guessing you are a nurse:-
You can get tax relief on the cost of repairing, cleaning or replacing a uniform if:- it's a recognisable uniform that shows you've got a certain sort of job - like a nurse or police uniform
- your employer requires you to wear it while you're working
- you've got to pay for it yourself
