Well I finally heard from the water company, they are giving me £108 !! back, that was one large leak :eek: but the money will be very useful. I also fogot that I pay my council tax over 10 months so I get two months with a council tax break, so that money will also go towards my debt so I did a new snowball with that and my new Debt free date is July 31st 2014 :j
And thats without my ebay sales, I have listed a couple of items both doing well, one ends today and one ends Friday, so fingers crossed, I am hoping for a good amount for one item as I think it might be quite popular.
I'll update on how much they make. I do still have a few more to list, find ebay listing boring so just do a couple at a time, also makes it easy to keep control of what needs sending out when.
Hope everyone else is having a good day

Wealth is what you're left with when all your money runs out0 -
Ebay went well, but unfotunaly I have another tooth problem, so some of the money will have to be used to sort that out, but at least I have the money for it, and there is still some left over to go towards the debt, so a little bit more gone

Got some more items to put on this week, not sure how well they will go, but got to give it a try and see what happens, fingers crossed.
In other news I have a job interview on Thursday, the job is walking distance so would save a lot in petrol which would be good. It is a contract for 6 months but may extend, the job I have now is perm but the company are really struggling, and looking to make cuts poss even lettting people go, so if I do get offered lots of thinking to be done. For now just going to do my best at the interview and get as much information as I can on how likely it is that they would extend it. phew feel better for writing that :rotfl:

Hi Fae - You seem to be doing fantastically well! Sorry about the tooth.
If the interview goes well - can you ask your company if they are looking for volunteers for redundancy - maybe you could get a £ or 2...X2012 The year I started dealing with my debts.

Hi,
I haven't been with this company quite 2 years yet, so don't qualify for redundancy
never mind, will see how it goes this afternoon.
Did have some good news last night, because it took the water company longer than their time scales to put my water meter in, they are giving me some more money back another £52.00
so a bit more of the debt when that arrives in my bank account.

Hello All
Hello Sista great to see you back
Well the interview seemed to go well so fingers crossed I get through to the second interview, I asked about the 6 month contract, and this is just to see if the person fits in etc, becoming pretty standard these days, so don't need to worry about that.
Rang the water company to get them to credit the £52 to my bank account, turns out we have been using less water than we thought and they owe me £75 and need to decrease my DD :T So that's some more of my credit cards yay

Morning Fae - Wow looks like good news on the credit back from the water company front.:j Wish mine would change, but I am already on a meter so not a lot I cam do :rotfl:
Anyway when should you know on the interview front? Really good luck for you X
Also have you listed anything on ebay this weekend as you said you might - Its free listing, so could save you a couple of ££'s which is always good.
Anyway off for a bath and early night, take care and speak soon xxx2012 The year I started dealing with my debts.
