That's very selfless of you! Will your mascara last for another month and a bit?
I have to go through toiletries too as I'm sure I have things I could use up before buying and when I do it'll be Basics shower gel, shampoo ad conditioner and nice stuff for my face only!Council Tax £1,928.85, Fines £90.00, Old Car Tax £267.00, Gas £337.25, Electric £54.42

£1,428 paid off my debts this month. Ive also saved £250.
People will think this is wrong but this is being saved to pay for a week away in January (a cheapy week in lanzarote)
this is a far cry from the 2 week USA fly drive we were going to do before the light bulb moment.
I work incredibly hard and long hours and NEED regular breaks. if i am in this country and off work im still working as my phone never stops.

Wow Prettypaula that must have been a good month's pay. Don't beat yourself up about booking a holiday. We all need something to look forward to, however big or small, otherwise we go mental, and especially when you have debt and can't see a way out any time soon. A small planned "setback" will probably keep you on track more, in fact!0

Good luck with your debt busting.
Ref the council tax liability order thingy, you are paying that off asap aren't you, as I think (not sure) they impact your credit rating.
Well done on how much you paid off this month that is awesome.
I hope 2012 is a really good debt busting year for you
chevI want a job that is less than an hour driving away from my house! Are you listening universe?
