    The smoking is a waste of money and im trying to stop just got to get my head in the game for it. I got the electric 1st to try and cut it down but i may have to just go cold turkey and try a knock it in the but.

    I cant use a card to pay any thing as there maxed out. im going to give capital one a call now and see if it possible of getting another card with a lower or interest free and transferring that way.

    it turns out the Vanquis card is 39.9 and my limit is £1000 which im at about £980 on that.

    capital one is 34.9% and I went over the limit as need paid £100 in on Tuesday so should be around £1550.

    So it look like the vanquis is the card that need to be delt with 1st.

    I paid off one of my cat bills that would have been due in September of £52 so thats gone.

    Im going to use joint account money to pay the item that due next next month.

    after that i have a £300 one due in october I think. and that will be half joint account and my own funds.
