Well done Chocolate Cupcake! My rating is probably not very good yet, but I did manage to get the Capital One card which is 0% until October so I will have to work hard to clear that (only a small BT of £650).

I got paid today from my second job so £150 onto my husbands flexiloan. I've managed to clear the small credit card, thanks to this thread! I would never have managed it otherwise! All those little payments really did add up!

Sent £2.65 this week. Quite enjoying "skimming" the top off my current account - doesn't feel like I'm paying the debt at all, just tidying up!!!!

Ive not been on for a month and i have so missed you guys, have had a family member in hospital and have only just come up for breath now they are back home. Good timing as I get paid tomorrow and i'm looking forward to tidying some bills up and getting back into the swing of things.

Its great to read there's still people joining up to this and i wish them all well, we're all here for each others hiccups so good luck. Hope everyone else and their family is well, its not been nice seeing mine in a poorly way and dont get me started on hospital parking! lol

Hi Betty,

Sorry to hear you have had such a hard time and I hope your family is on the road to recovery.

I've been having a think as I thought I was going to have to stop doing PAW as now paying for the holiday As I can't tidy up the bank account (overdrawn for now :eek:) I've decided to tidy the loose change in my purse every week starting today.

So £3.32 towards holiday fund this week.

Sorry to hear you've had a tough time Betty. Glad there is light at the end of the tunnel for you now.

Like ToniLiz I 'tidy' my bank account each week & this week I've sent £10.87 to the dreaded cc
