Hi guys
Just wanted to give some of you a little something nice to look forward to........not having to pay council tax in February & March. :j
So what is everyone going to spend theirs on? :rolleyes:
I have ours ear-marked for car-tax (buy for whole year to save money), and the rest will go onto credit card. Not very exciting, but it's approx. £260 that we wouldn't have otherwise, and another step closer to being debt free!!!!! :T

Hmm....let me think...... A designer handbag? A new haircut? A weekend away in a hotel for me and hubby? No, you're right, it will probably be the car tax!"I wasn't wrong, I just wasn't right enough.":smileyhea97800072589250

Yes - my car needs servicing...but thanks for cheering me up Lydia.42 I forgot about the not paying council tax for Feb & March thing :beer:0

Car tax for me too, even though it's not due until May. I'll just have to remember where I stash the cash! The rest will be spent on a night out with the family. Actually got flights and accommodation to pay for so the car tax may have to get paid from other money!OD Girls On TourBarcelona 2008 - Dublin 20090

£50 of it will go towards new oil & filter, air filter, brake pads, and spark plugs.
The rest will be put into the savings account.0 -
2 months water & council tax payments will cover the shortfall in my gas & electricity account

OO I had forgotten about the 2 "free" months too.
Mine will be going straight into my savings account for my holiday/pay off mortgage quicker fund. I will transfer it straight in there rather than to the council. I wont miss it then!Baby Ice arrived 17th April 2011. Tired.com! :j0 -
