Ok so just want to get this straight in my head so I understand what is goin on.
I will use this an an example ok.
My barclaycard CC.
Mimimum Payment was £29.80
I paid £109.00
So do I use the full amount paid or just the overpayment of £79.60.
Hope you get what I mean by that LOL

Hi Dolly
It would just be the £79.60 as you were forced to pay the minimum of £29.80 but you chose to pay the additional £79.60 x well done on the overpayment by the way !!:T
Hi clippy_girl, welcome to the group and I've added you to the list at the start...join in as much or as little as you like, just remember to update us on your pounds lost on either the last day of Jan or 1st Feb x0 -
Dont all shout at me but I've been messing around on Quidco and found an offer on a casino, deposit and play £20 get £60 cashback, it has 4 out of 5 star rating on tracking and payouts.
So did that and won £120 which I've withdrawn.
It's tracking on Quidco but now I've just got to wait and see if they pay out to see if I've just wasted £20 or made £160....:rotfl::rotfl:
Hope it pays out as I would pay it off my overdraft!0 -
Very jammy!!:beer:0

When do you go pennies? Very jealous of all the places I am guessing you are going:D just looking for our hol at the minute .... very MSE camping (to be fair tried it 4 years ago and do really like it... very relaxing and quality fun time with family.... but if I wasn't so in debt I doubt it would be my hol of choice!). Good luck with weigh in today.
We go in August as we have children we don't want to take out of school, so unfortunately that makes it even more exxxxpensiiiive :eek:
I haven't been camping since an outing with my junior school 30 plus odd years ago, but I have been trying to talk oh into it for another year, the kids are very keen!
I have decided to put off the weigh in until the 2nd January and have a couple of drinks New Years eve, it would be rude not to after all:rotfl:LBM 1.1.16 = £27096.59 - now £17,020.38
Paydbx 2017 - £3588.90/£7000 = 51.27% - number 74
Paydbx 2016 - £6487.31/£7000 = 92.67% - number 740 -
Wow PM congratulations! Loving the overpayment tracking idea.. I always intentd to do this put then don't often actually do it. Hopefully being able to post that I have will be extra incentive. I doubt my overpayments will be very big but each one should at least be a step in the right direction.
I know what you mean about not taking children out of school Pennies, we have never taken our daughter out ... but it does make it so much more expensive. Talking hols, I think I have found a camp siteYay... going to try to book tomorrow. Must be the new me... it has a health centre with gym on site, plus cycle hire and lots of walks
Clippy does the choc orange not come under fruit? :rotfl:
Don't blame you with the weigh in Pennies - would def be rude not too. Enjoy
Back at work tomorrow so if I am not on tomorrow I will wish you all a very Happy New Year and may we all lose lots of 'pounds' in 2013. :beer:.0 -

I cook most stuff from scratch so have no idea of calories etc... So it's opened my eyes since starting to enter some recipes (652 cals for sausage casserole and mash!!). Although unsurprisingly they did not have the option of a whole terrys chocolate orange as a snack :rotfl: crazily I did so much excersize yest that I still ended up under my calorie target :eek: finding it very interesting! :A
Laughing my head off at the Terrys choc orange story

Well done on the win PM.
I blew my emergency budget this month in the sales. Spent most of it on things I will use in the next few months or on presents for the year though so will save some dosh.
Had a look at my fitness pal too thanks. Aiming to swim at least three times a week. 20 mins will do for starters. Ate soooo much yesterday, have a pal staying for a few days. Looking forward to getting started on 2nd.

Had a good day food and exercise wise yesterday - feeling much better than I did on Boxing Day now.
The weather is dreadful here today so I'm going to have a go at Tae Bo instead of running - have visions of being like a flailing baby orangutan but I'll have a go:rotfl:
On the subject of holidays - I'm a teacher and so have no choice about when to go and its always the most expensive timesI do get almost 13 weeks holiday a year though........;)
