    Well done, I bet it was hard for a few minutes thinking what you could buy or put the extra towards.
    They should've let you keep it for being honest desismileys_6935.gif

    I wish they would let me keep it, I could pay it of the debts, oh well I can dream I guess :D

    Today I have sorted some items out for Ebay, and got them listed sorted out a box of items for a sell your books and CD site, and also had an NSD, I got OH to buy the couple of bits we needed, I'm sure it was his turn :rotfl:so all in all a good day.

    Hope everyone is enjoying the Sun, I've just declared it Pimm's oclock, :D

    As I now know what my new salary is after tax I thought I would do a new SOA and snowball, this also takes into account my overpayments, and I have a new OD pay off date, and a new DFD, the OD will now be paid of by 30th Sept 2012, that's just over two months away :D and my new DFD is 31st May 2015 that's less than 3 years away :j so a very big YAY sums up how I feel right now, and of course it gives me motivation to do even more.

    Fae (feeling very happy)

    Hello All,

    Well payday for me today, so another £200.00 :jof the overdraft that leaves £300.00 so I have decided to pay for my petrol on my lowext rate CC this month, and use the petrol money for my overdraft, the rate on the CC is 2.4% lower than the OD so makes sense to do that. That leaves £200.00 and I think I can make that amount this month and get it cleared so could be looking at a new date of 31st Aug for the OD to be cleared. :T

    The extra £200.00 will come from a mixture of things, Ebay, car boot, refund on overpayment of water charges, and selling my mobile. I have found my cheap pay as you go phone, so going to use that till my contract ends, it's with the same provider so can just swap the card over, and sell my expensive phone, it makes sense to have the money rather than the gadget for now. :D
