Evening all. Welcome to the newbies, happy birthday to the birthday guys/girls. Congrats on the debt busting to everyone.

Jakes-mum - if your clothes have holes then you defo deserve some new ones. You must be one of the hardcorest of us all

Just finished wrapping presents (well OH did it for me) and I have a much smaller pile than last year but I'm happy at only spending £50 per person. I even made a few presents

Superheavy

Tomorrow will be the last bit of debt busting I get to do before Christmas, and I'm already a little skint so I doubt there'll be much until January payday apart from the loan and credit card DD's that I've budgeted for.

On the plus side, I should be well into four figures by the time the end of January comes around, and I have a sharesave maturing in the summer which I hope will come in very handy too.

Dont mention wrapping - I have been avoiding mine. Normally I love it but I cant get motivated to do it this year. Every time I open my wardrobe I see the presents looming. I cant put it off for much longer though.

I LOVE wrapping! If I was near to you I'd come and wrap your presents for you

I sent a complaint letter to HBSC and they agreed to give me £50 compensation for their many c0ckups! I checked my account today and they'd only paid in £25 so another angry complaint sent off...:eek::eek::eek:

Please come to mine, only one child to wrap for, but haven't the energy to get round to it!

Hi

Can you add me please! I've been planning on doing the same thing but could use the support.

I've got £14500 to pay off. I've worked out a plan for getting rid of at least 7k of this in 2012, but would love the push to bump this up and get rid of the whole damn lot 2 years ahead of schedule!

Well Fortunepig, welcome to the thread

Jakes Mum I definitely think you deserve some new clothes, treat yourself its CHRISTMAS in just 3 sleeps :j

I got some money back off work today that they owed me so I quickly paid £160 of my CC. Got paid yesterday too but don't want to transfer money into the main account until the 1st as I know we will dip into it which could be dangerous.

Also did a budget Christmas food shop, using vouchers so was happy with how much we spent as last year we spent double.:D

First update report on payment :j

#145 £0.00/£15,313
