    Thanks. About to hunt items to eBay and yesterday I sent the DVDs off to music pagpie so looking forward to getting the cheque for that.

    Did a really long survey yesterday but was £2.50 which is amazing in survey terms.

    My camera sold on eBay for £10. Need to send it recorded tomorrow as I've already been paid. After that and PayPal fees ill transfer the rest against the credit card.

    No debt busting this week really as I don't get paid until Thursday I feel at a stand still.

    Credit card statement day! Balance gone up as this month's interest has been added so off to update sig. Have paid £4 so far as would have had a graze box yesterday so that's accounted for in sig.

    I have so far paid off £430.09 which is 1% of my original debt total. Going to look at how much actual money I've spent doing that.
