im really fed up. i got paid and paid all my bills including £350. off debt.
i now have no money for the month. i mean no money at all.
so i probably shouldnt have made a payment at all but i want this debt gone badly.
i am no going to have to use my credit card (which i pay in full every month - so not a debt technically) to buy food and anything else we want this month.
why is it sooo difficult.
sorry to moan xx0 -
Just paid £30 for Junes minimum Virgin payment so that's £1906.83/£6842.49. There will be more where that came from on Tuesday when I get paid:):):)Debt free and busy treating myself:)

Just paid another £1003 off my mortgage.:T
But I'm doing something wrong as my credit card bill is rising instead by roughly the same amount.
Have finally started to go through all my spending in the last 12 months and realized to my horror that I am spending waaaaayyyyy more than I thought on all the other expenses such as food shopping, clothes etc. And I spent nearly three times what I had budgeted for my new dog. :eek:
I'm going to have to re-think my whole saving/overpaying strategy. There's lot's off advice on the threads here so I'd better be off reading those religiously every day. Have a good Sunday everyone.Debt: Absolutely Mega (six figures) :shocked:

VERY busy month ahead so I've held money back so I definitely have enough to cover the things coming up (IOW Festival/Sister's Wedding) so not paid as much as I usually do on Pay Day, BUT my total debt is now under 2K so I'm happy with that!! Will try to not spend as much money as I've budgeted for things, then any left overs can be sent debt-wards!
TOTAL PAID THIS YEAR SO FAR: £1535/£3435 :j
44.6% of the year's target done in 5 months0 -

Hope everyone is having a good weekend!"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0
