Time to get it sorted

Things I've learnt this month:

• I need to budget better
• I need to research ways to make a bit of extra money
• I need to budget better
• I need to make sure I keep track of my hours at work - I'm sure I was short of wages this month but didn't have a full list of my hours so I can't check it
• Oh and I need to budget better!

Currently getting my Woohoo Bingo on in the hopes that I can get enough stars to get some vouchers. That way I can use them as Christmas/Birthday presents. I got a long way to go before I can get hampers for xmas pressies. However as I'm off sick for a week I'll see how far I can get

I work in a supermarket and because I'm on a three week rolling rota I don't know if I'd be able to do it

My work hours are pretty full on as well. What I do is pick the MS jobs that I know I can do. I usually book them a few days beforehand as well. I just make it work for me.

Oooh I'll have a look into it

I'm going to set up a little ironing business. It's something I can fit the hours in around my main job - I can do it before or after work and on days off etc. I'm going to charge £1 per item or 10 items for £8.

I'm just deciding on a name at the moment and will then get a little website up and running to start spreading the word

Good luck with your venture

Thanks I have two people so far who say they will let me do their ironing.

I know my debt has gone up because it's been a difficult month and I've had to borrow money to get through. I don't know how much by and I need to make some phone calls monday morning to set up some payment plans with some companies.

Its difficult but I'll get there eventually. Unfortunately this month my car tax is due and next month is my MOT. Guess my proper debt busting won't be starting just yet!

My MoT is due next month too, as well as a full service and the engine warning light is on too! Not looking forward to it!

I'm dreading it. It's bound to go wrong and cost me money I don't have!

I need to check my credit report but I'm kind of scared to do it. What if it's bad and how do I improve it?
