Hi all
cashed up my loose change tin today. I have paid some of it of the cc but still need to take more to the bank, it was abit too heavy to carry all at once. I had a grand total of £159!!! Also dd for one cc came out today. i have listed loads on ebay have had a few sales this weekend so need to post items and transfer money from paypal to cc. Have sold a book on amazon and have £157 tracked in quidco. I now have £700 to clear off a cc as the 0% finishes this month. I really don't want to do another balance transfer so will try nd pay off quickly to minimise interest. My remaining debt is also 0% until end of august. I cant believe i've paid over £1000 off already.

Zapper was annoying me, so i music magpied tonight and raised £90 from old dvds and games, so hopefully that comes through soonish.
I was such a hoarder but slowly getting rid and making money in the process.

Hi everyone, sorry I haven't been around lately. I have had a brainwave ideal about a business I can setup and I have started putting it into place
website is all ready to go, and I've worked out all my costs etc. The only problem was the capital for the stock, so I've spent the past week sorting through 7 boxes of stuff marked "for fleabay" for the past 11 months. At the weekend I spent my time photographing 4 boxes of the stuff, then I edited all 190+ photos!!!!
Given that I can only list 100 things a month at 99p this might take some time! However, the money will go towards paying off the cc first, then it will go towards stock
I have also spoken to the OH and he has said that I should use whatever money is left in our joint account to pay off the cc quicker, even if this means having to dip onto the cc as an emergency. This should save us £100+ each month in interest and we'll eventually just bring down the amount we use on the cc. What do people think about this idea?
Spagbol, I hope everything goes as well as it can and your DS gets through the rough patch at school ok xxDiary: Getting back on track for 2013 and beyondDEBT FREE 13-10-13 :dance::dance::dance::dance::dance:
