Ok, have added everything up and our total debt is £5,500 give or take the odd £ seems impossible at the moment, but fingers crossed with lots of cutting back, especially on our groceries, we'll make it You're all doing brilliantly, so I'm sure this thread will keep us on the straight and narrow

On the drop down menu at the top of the page where it says 'quick links' there is an option to Edit Signature

Right definitely last payment before payday as I've got about £3 in my account...:p

#89. £385/£1550 24.84%!!

Would have loved to have made it 25% but I won't lose any sleep over that :rotfl:

Does anyone else get random amounts of money missing from their accounts?! Quite often there'll be literally £1 or £2 that I can't see on my statement, that I haven't spent and it will turn up back there as if nothing happened - well my CC has done that now!! According to the summary page I've paid an extra £2.03 than I actually have - how/why?!?

So I am watching three things on Ebay that I am going to buy once payday is here, but then I am going ebay cold turkey. I have worked out I have spent £500 on there in the last 2 months. :eek: A bit of that is Christmas stuff but I am shocked at how much I have spent.

So if you see me mention Ebay - please tell me off (unless I am selling on it!);)

Lol Dorsetgirl I've not bought anything on ebay for ages - the last thing was a pair of shoes I REALLY didn't need - but they are sooooo glam and they were far cheaper there than anywhere else!!

Sometimes if you order goods/shopping online they check to make sure you have the funds by taking out a small amount then repaying it. Supermarkets do it a lot. Maybe thats what it is????

Sorry I've been away for so long everyone! This thread must have been lacking Y chromosones for the last few days... :cool:

Anyway, £725.69 paid off today, bringing my total to....

#57 - £2,675.63/£16,136.77 - 16.58%

That'll do me nicely for a Christmas total!

Keep it up everyone!
