    Debt 2 = £1600- 1% = £16 - 0%

    Hi Guys, I haven't been on for ages, so sorry!
    I hope you are all well.
    I am happy that I have got internet in the new house and got the computer working :-)
    I hope to be able to pop in every few days now.
    My latest payments over the last couple've months have been:
    £70 Bcard 2
    £50 C.1
    £100 rent arrears (now being paid to MIL)
    STILL waiting for PPI to come back, they take their sweet time don't they?
    Anyway, totals for now for Spagbol are £290 paid off so far for #6
    I have just got some more hours at one of the gyms so I will be putting that towards debt and as soon as the PPI comes that will be going towards it too.
    Time to chase up Barclaycard methinks :D
    Don't turn a slip up into a give up:D

    Debt-free and Proud!
    Hello all,

    Been a spendy weekend but Hubby paid for everything with his overtime and pay increase :)

    We booked a hotel for a weekend planned for June and thought they just stored your CC as security in case you cancel but they've taken the payment and it's on this month's bill making my debt £1713.

    However, I need to double check my finances tonight but, I think I can afford to pay £850 this month (certainly £750) and Hubby can afford £150 (he thinks) so a potential £1k to hammer the CC with. It does mean I won't be putting away £150 into the savings fund as planned but I'm hoping I can cut my weekly spending and save what's left each week to put into the savings fund.

    It also means my CC debt could be 3 figures for the first time in YEARS!

    Whenever I weigh out the recommended portion size, it's never very big, no matter what cereal I eat! I rarely eat cereal though. That doesn't sound like a bad lunch though, depends how you cook the Couscous?
