I hear you about the halifax overdraft was uneasy about having it anyway and following all the advice I'm going to avoid it
Wages have arrived :j:j:j:j:j
They were about £50 less than expected but I think this may be due to staff sales on bits my mum ordered months ago , she has already had the delivery but I ask her to pay the money when it gets deducted from wages.
How keen am I? I have already transferred money around and sent money on it's merry way to pay the debts :T and updated sig
Paid off £40 from next and Set myself a mini challenge of getting next to under 100.00 within 7 days that £8.11 is bugging me already :rotfl:NEXT. - was £120. / now £ 120

Wrestling sounds fun....enjoy it! I wish I was good at gardening, I have an amazing ability to kill any plant I lay eyes on. So I avoid them as much as possible!Kitchen Debt - 2820/260Save £12k in 2013 #060: 1293.24/3000MFW: 88760.00/85000.00 (4.24% paid)0 -

Addictive, isn't it!?!? :rotfl:Wealth is what you're left with when all your money runs out0 -
Evening
A quick catch up before I head off to bed .
Had a really tired day today even had a little cat nap which is so unlike me
Spent today finishing off the garden
Just rounded down banks and paid another £6.60 off of next :j only another £1.52 to pay then I will be under the £100 Mark :j
Also put some money to holiday fund . Have spent some holiday fund already to pay for cattery deposit but although I felt a bit naughty spending it but that is what it's there for I guess
Sig is updated and it's true it is addictive
Night

My little adventure to primark was a disaster
Picked up 3maxi dresses I couldn't be bothered to try them on in store so had a fashion show at home with a very honest DD as my audience :eek:
Needless to say dresses being returned as it appears that my belly is to big to look" cool " in them :eek::eek::(NEXT. - was £120. / now £ 120

Morning ,
Next statement has arrived and interest been added ,signature has been updated ,
I have rounded down bank accounts and paid £1.53 towards Next debt .
More shopping today with DD she's a bit of a moneybags at the minute thanks to pocket money from nanny and grandad . After forcing her to put half of it in the bank the rest is burning a hole in her pocket . I could really do without traipsing around shopping centre
Have a great day everyone
