Had another sale on Amazon, my total is slowly going up.

Well done for all the challenge money earned - even if it's only little amounts, it all adds up and I know that for me, these little amounts would have been 'lost' in general spending so I am thankful to the challenge for this!

Poppycracker - 'I want to be Debt Free - but I have a OH' Club!' Hilarious!

Hope all those who've been unwell are much much better now and can go out and enjoy the sunny weather (even though it's now clouding over here).

I am very pleased - today was the day I emptied my 'piggies' - the gold one with £2 and £1 coins, and the 'other one' with all the rest - silver, copper etc.

Pleased to report £82 in those, now banked and on it's way to IceSave.

I had been including the £2 coin here and there in my Olympic challenge, but now have taken out all the little amounts, and recalculated with this one off deposit.

So my total has now been adjusted accordingly!

oh dear poppy!!

could you try and motivate him into doing things to earn or save money if he catches the bug like us lot he will soon become addicted

start putting a couple of his possessions on ebay otherwise telling him you need the money from somewhere he might and i stress might just get the hint

good luck hun xx

Thanks wilf. Trouble is, he doesn't seem to be able to make a connection between him spending money and us being in debt! He's actually been giving me things to sell on eBay, but I'd rather that he actually stopped spending money we haven't got!

Sure! Anyone else who'd be debt-free if it wasn't for the attitude of their partner??

Count me in ! We try and have a "mine is mine and his is his" policy about money (having been burnt before) but there is always the "you couldn't lend me a tenner" or I end up paying for the shopping or rather than pay for his half of the bills he buys a new sound card/ keyboard/ software system - just delete as appropriate.:rolleyes:

I do love him but ......can't live with him, can't bury his body under the patio on my own either !:D

finallydebtfree!!

My partner left me and now Im debt free sure it was him that spent all the money!!

sorry to hear you are having a rough time poppycracker, we all all here if you need us :grouphug:

finallydebtfree!!

has anyone any experience of the free avg antivirus? my norton was about to expire and someone at work suggested it. so with my latest hobby being moneysaving thought Id give it a go (saving myself around £30-£40! ) just wondering now if I have done the right thing!
