Ah good for you! Yeah I sneakily do surveys in work too. And spend most of my time on MSE (which is good coz then I'm not spending money!!:D)

Good luck with ebay. I've found it tough this last few times. Fingers crossed for you

Thanks HAW - I have also founf things slow on ebay at the minute - but every bit counts and also helps me declutter the house! Its a free listing day this weekend - although I am staying at a friends I might try and take a few pictures, get them on the computer and load them while I am at hers.

Another small amount to cc this morning - wont be much more until payday next week as had a rather unexpected and bloomin expensive trip to the dentist yesterday

right, another rainy monday but another small payment towards CC today.

Managed to only spend £20 n take away at the weekend and nothing else also - although painful! managed to get somethings on ebay and even have a bid on one piece already so fingers crossed they all sell for loads of money that I can pay towards my credit card!

Managed to get a dozen or so things on ebay myself yesterday so fingers crossed for me too!!

HAW - fingers and toes crossed for both of us taht there is an ebay frenzy of bids!

didn't manage a NSD yesterday but it was a neccessary spend so don't feel too bad.

Small payment to my CC today in preperation for pay day toorrow! wooo hooo! 1st month of new budget starts tomorrow so a little nervous but will just have to keep a close eye on it.

morning all, Pay Day here so I have made some extra payments to credit cards.

1st day of the new budget - i know we pain stakingly worked it all out but now, being pay day and having looked at the account it is only really hitting home how tight things are going to be! must stay strong as it will be worth it when we don't have to pay out £100's every months on debts!

No bids yet but still a week to go so yip, fingers crossed! Hope you're doing better than me so far!! lol

Do stay strong. It really will be all worthwhile if you stick at it. And you’ll be soooooooooooo proud of yourself when you manage it too We’ll all be here to cheer you on :j

Thank you so much HAW - your encouragement was just what i needed yesterday - was getting to me a little but I guess we all have those days and I'm sure there will be a few more to come as well!

eBay is going well actually - bids on all but 1 so far! I knew they were stuff that wuld sell i have just been putting off selling them as I like having stuff!! but its for a good cause - my credit card!! I will keep my fngers crossed for you for yours finishing!

right after a couple of weeks of madness and no internet access I'm backon track.

Made a small payment today to CC meaning I have paid off 10% of my debt and am now under £9K feels good - can't wait for payday to be able to pay off some more!!

Hi MinniMe, just found your diary and will be following. If you don't already know it is free listing on ebay at the moment until the 9th September, which is great as i hate rushing listing everything so this time i can spread it out.

I will be folllowing your diary - good luck x
