Yes BOSS!!!:D I have no intention of slipping back off the wagon, i say pah to the 60 month target (anyone got any ideas? eep!:o ) thanks for your help today hypno, had a read through that FSA stuff, not sure boss would have a leg to stand on which is great. maybe i'll get a full nights sleep tonight!:rolleyes:
unixgirl that sounds like a cracking idea, shall we say first one to £500 or is that to much? Shall we post it as a thread and see if anyone else wants in? got boxes upon boxes of DVD's and cd's sitting around from the move. OH insists on sky movies so ain't ever gonna watch em!:rotfl:
thanks for that Lynzpower, you're an inspiration. reading that you were debt free after all you've been through kinda gave me a boot up the a^$£!! and luckily i've conquered the smoking demon years ago!! :j
looking forward to geting that commission, think that may be the secret to beating the 60 month mark!debt @05/11/11 £12210.63!! slowly chipping away!!:heart2:impossible is nothing.:heart2:0 -
Pania,
Is your sig new ? Only that phrase is precisely how me & my beloved got together
First port of call - get selling them CDs and get rid oif that provi :eek: and pronto! Right about N-O-W is a good idea https://www.amazon.co.uk even if you just put a handful on ( this is what I do when I cant be mithered) any effort is better than none at all.
Sometimes Ive been known to load onew book on amazon, then an mse postr, then one book on amazon, then mse post.I pretend to be motivated LOL
:beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
This Ive come to know...
So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:0 -

I have a similar routine.

no lynz that was on there when i first started posting, lovely though isn't it.
Was ashamed i had to take out the Provident loan, only took it as it doesn't show on credit ratings and i would have got another default and my boss would have sacked me had i not have done. it will be gone asap!!
Going to hit amazon hard tomorrow, and possibly got a couple of bits lurking for ebay to, couple of tops i don't wear that kinda thing, will bear in my both your strategies, one dvd, cup of tea, MSE post, one dvd, go for a run, MSE post and so on!! he he. unixgirl challenged me to an, erm, challenge, waiting for her to get back to me with the details but may get the stuff on amazon a bit quicker!!debt @05/11/11 £12210.63!! slowly chipping away!!:heart2:impossible is nothing.:heart2:0 -
Hi Pania,
I'd say keep posting on here and that way we can the good vibes on this thread going. I'll look out all my Amazon-able stuff over the weekend and load it on Monday (no internet access this weekend). 500quid would be a good chunk off my visa card bill. Let us know how you are today.CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J0 -
bloomin awful! :mad: (sorry to be brutally honest!) had an awful nights sleep again! woke up with a start thinking i'm going to loose my job, OH has got a day off today and is talking of going out to get some fish for the fish tank, bought stuff on ebay and wants to go to the pub tonight!! GAAAAAAHHHH!!! :eek: thank god he's got his bank account and i have mine thats all i can say. feeling really grumpy which is a shame as we have a day off together where he's not playing cricket, need to enjoy it!!:o
Thanks for the support unixgirl, :T what happened with the storm damage? sounds awful, and expensive!! That sounds like a great idea, gonna get some batteries for the digi cam and put some tops and my old dive gear on ebay, along with dvds and books on amazon, i'll give you a count in a bit. £500 it is then... hope we make it!! going to take a look at rejoining the world of mystery shopping to now i work from home i can often sneak off and do things like that.
Speak soon!:j

Storm damage, don't get me started. Fences came down, heating packed in the lot. Never mind........enough of my troubles.
You should get a lot for your dive gear, I sold mine on ebay and actually got more than I paid for it in Oz. weird eh? Is the debt yours or joint? Thought your OH would want to help out. Don't get disheartened you will get there. Promise.CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera.

Hi Pania and unixgirluk
Sorry for butting in, but just thought that I would mention an alternative to Amazon for you both to look at - Play.com also have a marketplace type area. Have a look at this thread for more info.

blimey that sounds awful! no fun without heating, i've been there done that! brrrr!!:o
Don't get me started on OH, no debt is mine and mine alone hence he is so pig headed about it. Just going to get myself sorted and then be proud i've done it all myself. He insists we keep the finances seperate... Sad thing is i can see him getting into debt again, he had his od extended by the bank this month to £500 although he says he hasn't gone up to it i know he's nearly there. He also owes his folks £2500, sold his car for a nice sum of money and spent it all rather than pay folks back, couldn't believe it when he said it had gone. :mad:
but so long as look after my finances well as soon as my commissions come in i should be fine then i can sort him out!
So a fellow diver hey! :T where have you been diving?
I love it i just can't get the time right now so may as well sell it and get some money for it. Have sold my regs and wet suit already, got a dive computer, BCD and shorty to go, BC getting bit tatty but in great working condition so will prob only look for about £30 for that. Sold my dive camera to a lovely girl in southampton, wonder if she'll buy some more, hmmm:rolleyes:
anyway i'd better go have some breakfast and will post in a bit, Have a good day y'all!debt @05/11/11 £12210.63!! slowly chipping away!!:heart2:impossible is nothing.:heart2:0 -
