  • KC - I hope you picked the best option re: red/blue!

    We've had to buy a new sofa today, which means my DFD will need recalculating... Interest free loan. Hmmm is this bad?

  • Mini update - rubbish week in terms of managing money. Very stressful work-wise. Managed to lose a lb though. I now have £340 in my 'weightloss' account (£10 per lb) :)

    MBNA 0% offer runs out in June so I really need to pull my finger out and find out a new deal. Actually, I need to really start paying it off as well - having 0% has been such a novelty that I've almost forgotten the urgency in getting rid of the debt.

    Anyways, gives me something to do if it's raining tomorrow...

    Night all!

  • Thanks hypno and smashedbooboo - hope life is good for you!

    On the general scale of things I shouldn't really be moaning too much, it's just whenever I get close to clearing my last card, something comes up which involves spending some money.

    OK - so I think I know the answer... even if I can get another 0% deal, I need to keep paying it off. Putting the money into a savings account i.e. stoozing, just doesn't work for me.
