I will be paying the grand total of 4p this week! :rotfl:
I am overdrawn until DH gets paid on 28th. I thought I'd paid off one cc completely until a lovely bill for 4p interest plops on the mat yesterday. I was going to go to the bank today but as it's raining it can wait until tomorrow

I take a shopping list (made from doing a meal planner for the week ahead!) and CASH only to Mr T's. I have to stick to my list then 'cos I'll have no money to pay for it at the checkout.

One thing I wonder about................what do the CC companies think about all the odds and ends we pay to them!!! Must be an administration nightmare...........oh well, I suppose they bring it on themselves! :-)
This is my one of my favourite bits of sending 85p every day to my card. Feels a bit naughty, but totally legit.
A friend of mine works in a bank, and we once exchanged £10 between our accounts in 10p increments after he suggested it probably cost about the same each time we did it. I wonder what it does cost?0 -
Hi all, £3.88 for this week0
