Madhatter90's Debt Diary

Started the day off early, went to visit a friend and her little girl. It was great catching up with her and she even fed me! Result!

Signed up as an ESOL volunteer, hopefully start my training at the end of February which is exciting. Also booked an appointment at my local college salon for a cut and colour as my hair is looking dreadful. First time I've gone there and not to a fancy hairdressers so it'll be interesting!

Sent off my ebay parcels, made £9 profit which isn't too bad. Better than nothing anyway. Tried to trade in my wii but it's missing some kind of cover so they wouldn't take it. Joined my local buy and sell on facebook so will try my luck there. MusicMagpie really dragging their feet with paying me. Getting annoying now.

4 days until pay day!

Ugh, one of the people who bought my dress on ebay is messaging me saying she wants a full refund because I've apparently altered the dress to be shorter than the picture? What? Why on earth would I do that? Now I remember why I stopped using ebay :mad:

So not only did I have to deal with that message this morning I also got a £30 fine through the post for driving in a bus lane in Glasgow when I was only changing lanes to turn left! Obviously did it too early and the camera clocked me. So irritating. I've just paid up as I can't be bothered fighting it.

BUT! On the plus side it's PAYDAY :T Got paid a little more than I though so put £300 into my savings. I don't have the new statements for my credit cards yet and the cabot comes on on the 2nd, so haven't updated my debts in my signature but will later.

Other than that I got my hair cut and coloured at the local college for £13 (!! The money I've wasted) picked up a few new work clothes in Primark and did a food shop in Asda. I've lent my sister some money as well, so will need to watch my own budget for a while. She's worse with money than I am!

I think that's it for now! x

So I had a job interview on Saturday to be a receptionist at our local holiday park and I just received a call saying I got it! I'm so excited! I'll be on better pay since it's full time rather than part time and it's a contract that ends right around the time that I was planning to go to Canada! So works out pretty well for me

Means I can save a little more, plus pay off a little more debt before I go. Plus it's better experience I think. Admin rather than retail. Currently texting everyone I know haha!
