Pay ALL your debt off by Xmas 2013
Comments

Thank you for the welcome... I recognise some folk on here!! For those of you who haven't read anything of mine ( don't blame you..:p) I have been hit with a house move in two months time ( thankfully rental property ) following a planned 30th Birthday Trip and the only holiday this year....
So no over payments in March / April and May = GUTTED!!!
Feeling guilty already... £1100 pus aside to assist with the house move from many weekends on overtime... another £700 hopefully in April and I can have a half decent holiday to Italy although seriously on the cheap. Still feel like I want to whack the lot on my debt though...!! :T
Although you have no idea how far my determination reaches!!!
I will check in as much as I can when more money is taken off.. Roll on payday!!!.. but must keep an eye on my Chickadees on my monthly challenges... Grr! :rotfl:

I know, I'm over the moon :j
After a year of austerity and a few months of unadulterated carp we are finally getting lots of good news. We have someone coming over tomorrow to assess us for being a host family for foreign students over the summer which will be a lovely cash injectionOh, and we are doing a car booty this weekend and I am going to continue to ebay like a demon
Oh my parents do that. I want to do it too but I don't think my house is ready for paying guests!!:eek: lol definitely worth it if you can.

Awesome news Spagbol!!!
I'm really tired and have an ear infection too:( Just done a 'top up' shop.... my cupboards are full to the brim because things were on offer. Naughty naughty :-/
Can't wait for some payments on Friday!!! gotta get that total DOWN!!!!0 -
I'm having a really good day today!
First of all I got approval for the 0% balance transfer so as soon as that comes through I'm going to transfer the F1 ticket money over which is nice!0% interest until July so we can at least make a decent size dent in it before we switch it back to the interest card.
Then I got my eb4y selling allowance upped to 100 items a month yay! But not going to list anymore until the next free listing weekend I think, unless, is it free to list at 99p?
Then been to my mums for tea tonight so that's saved us some of our food and I also brought home left over mince meat and sauce so I can make my own spag bol another night!
Bad thing was I had to take out the money I put aside for rent because we desparately need curtains, our living room is freezing because the one wall is just a window with a breeze coming through the balcony door! Not too bad though because I can just put it back on payday and take it out of the money I was going to put in my savings anyway.
Phew that was an essay!DF by Xmas 2013 #135: £833/£1195 (69.7%)0 -
