The "Pay ALL your debt off by Xmas 2012" challenge - PART 2!!!

antonia1

At last! Pay day today :T:T:T:T:T

A small payment of £150 this month, which takes me to:

011 antonia1 £995 / £3,895 25.54%

Now, I wonder where I could make an extra few £££ this month?!

Question for tea-break, everybody... with all this fleabaying going on, what are the little luxuries in your life that you couldn't bear to part with? I know underwear isn't high up that list for some of you!

There are things people wont ebay?? :eek: we'd be sat on the floor with no carpets in this house if DH hadnt put his foot down :rotfl:

Ummm ok, the only thing I really couldnt ebay are my books im really not one for 'stuff' so dont have alot left . . oh and my laptop cos all my friends live inside it , DH loves his very expensive coffee machine that he hasnt turned on in 15 months . . . not that im counting . . . :rotfl:
I did write out a SOA a while ago and realised i'd happily get rid of everything frivolous of DH and I (ok just DH, I dont actually have anything frivolous to give up ) and was quite amused that I would cut back of fuel for the car/heating etc before I would stop Lilys nursery or Jakes scouts and karate

Pretty good. I don't get to see him much cos he lives sooooo far away, but I seem to spend more time on the phone to him than my mum at the moment (and I talk to my mum lots!). I got a tipsy call from him last week that went a bit like this:

I really like you why do you live far away you don't want to live in london forever do you cos I really don't want kids with cockney accents and what would I do with the boat

I had to try really hard not to laugh cos he was being so sentimental, and he's 6'4" with a strong Middlesbrough accent so it really didn't suit him.

Glad the datings going well my OH doesn't want to bring up kids in London either... so for some random reason I'm now looking up places in the Thames Valley area to see where's cheap enough to live and commute (this won't happen for about 2years, I think I'm mad)
