Tesco have put up my credit card limit by £1000!! Only because i've been making overpayments, The old me would have been overjoyed and probably booked a holiday but now i'm just angry that they are trying to keep me indebted to them GRRRRRR!! More determined to clear it as quickly as possible now :-)

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

Well done :T

Updated total figure including what I owe my Parents. They're not fussed about me paying them back within the year, but I'm motivating myself to! Should be able to clear everything by Aug/Sept hopefully!

Contractions have apparently slowed so no baby just yet. Boo!

I'm really annoyed with Mr W this morning, they were meant to deliver last night but called to say that they had issues with their vans so could they deliver between 7.30 - 11am this morning. I said that'd be fine but they've only just delivered (albeit including a bottle of champers for the inconvenience), but they haven't delivered my chocolate yule log and the receipt says 2 xmas puds when I only ordered and only had 1 delivered. This is turning into a nightmare :mad:

Welcome new people :j

Keep checking my statements incase the new ones have been issued, any day now I can bust some more debt.

Afternoon all!

If you're worried you might be tempted, I'm sure you could phone them and tell them to reduce the limit. Been there, done that, bought the T-shirt, and a holiday and a new TV...:rotfl:

Hope the vouchers turn up jakes mum, our post is always later than normal this time of year.


Well there shall be no more debt busting til the New Year now, just hoping for lots of NSDs. Last day at work til Wed now but will try to find the time to pop on and keep up with you all and looking out for baby news kerri. Note to self- note thread page number and read from there, why do I always start at the last post and read backwards?:rotfl:

Keep up the debt busting everyone xxx

ps maddie I hope you get to the of this thread...eventually
