purplegrape

mummy2threeboys

Great idea im in! . Mine will be to try and clear hsbc loan first already paid £860 (£800 in tax credit underpayement and £60 minium payment) as its a flexi loan i allways transfer the £60 minium payment back just so i could clear my od, this is the lowest my fexi loan has been in almost 12 years.

Payment a week sounds great then i could find a few bits too ebay as well

Hi Peeps,
Just lost all I had messaged before doh!!
Thanks Betty Crumble no not a typo!! I is here for the duration of sorting out our mess now.:eek:
Head jangled this week due to son & gf splitting up and a little one in the middle....I have done what I need to do pay day been sorted all monies my extras been skimmed not sure how much though!!:o I know this aint quite the right thread for personal issues but will be leaning on you to keep me focused on something. Ebay sales been good this week so will be throwing extras at my Virgin card now currently £388 o/s. Good thing about Virgin is they still take the minimum whatever - simple. :cool:.
Confession time - We always pickup pennies off the floor!!!:rotfl::rotfl:
Keep those pennies rolling in

chin up and stay focussed lankylass, everything will be ok i'm sure.
I get paid on friday so a better payment to come but have just popped 2.35 for now towards my last car payment. I am going to clear my total back down to zero so I can see where im at with my specific goal of the last car payment.
(just for my ref: £434.48 before starting again.)

Hello everyone. I am so relieved we have both been paid and hopefully things will be a bit easier now. I should also be able start making some extra payments. Just need to resist the urge to spend but I think that one is under control now.

hi everyone, been absent for a while and had no spare money because of the wedding. But I've had a pay rise (with back pay to April) and I've got all my surplus wedding stuff finishing on ebay this afternoon, so there has been some extra payments AT LAST!!!

Hi guys, despite "Olympic" intentions only managed £5.19 this week. Two family occasions meant dipping into spending money for this week, so budget a bit tighter than I would like..! Hope to make amends asap.
Hope you all have a gold medal money saving week!
