    Will you get told off or will you have to do that yourself as well?
  • A BIG THANKS TO EVERYONE FOR EXPLAINING HOW TO RECORD DEBT CHALLENGE.

    I have just paid another £20 off debt this morning as I was going to buy my daughter a posh frock from a posh shop and stopped myself - I then found a great deal elsewhere and saved £20. This debt challenge is catching - I keep thinking of ways to reduce the debt...I may even have a go at selling on ebay once I have mastered how to do it (need to learn how to use digital camera first)!!!

    Ok debt paid so far:

    # 142 £50/£2700

    sorry don't know how to make font bigger and children all asleep so can't show me!!!

  • Morning folks....two more days and I'm finally done with work for a few days. Wish I could go back to my student days where I'd finish mid December and kick back in again mid January.

    If you click in to edit your post velvet, you need to click to go advanced, you then select the text and just drop the "sizes" button, I usually find three or four works for me. :)
    DFW - DEBT FREEEEEE!

    Total - 10762/10762 :)

    Every silver lining has its cloud.
  • Morning all - only 2 more sleeps now :D

    I have decided that I am going to treat myself to some S&G body butter today as a Christmas present to myself. I wont actually be spending any money as I have enough ad card points. DH and I said we wouldnt buy for each other this year. I have got him some presents from the children but I know he hasnt got anything for me so I am doing it myself. I want just one thing to open at Christmas.

    £290.40/£7873.87 #130

    Off to the pantomime today - really excited :j

    I am still only on page 13 of this thread but I am off for a few days so will take a glass of wine up to my parents pc and get stuck in!

    However, after a long day I came home and totted up my totals and found I have actually paid ~£994.16 towards my debt. Have totally cheered myself up as I have paid a 28th of my debt since I started and after paying all my bills this month I have £20 left. Hurray!

    Maddie :j

    Merry Christmas

    I played my youngest hers last night - she wants a jellycat monkey and when he said that she was so excited. She loved the pictures of herself too.

    Talking of the monkey (which was the present I was sweating over being delivered) It arrived at 8 this morning so my panic is over :j
