happy Friday everyone. great to see so many making payments.
im waiting for my wages on the 17/19 ish. and then I can begin.
yes it is frustrating but there is nothing else for it but to knuckle down, be frugal and wait it out.
ive a ton of stuff to ebay and knitting to do (and sell) so plenty to keep me busy but I want to be making payments too xx0 -
I too am waiting for payday :mad:
Cant wait to get going on my snowball payments.
Have been squirreling away little amounts to add to payments when payday finally arrives.
£21+ no smoking money :j am feeling quite smug about that one.Emptying my lake with a teaspoon0 -
:jJust made my first payment of the year.
£390 off one of my 3 credit cards. (Should be able to pay this one off next month). This was made up of my usual monthly payment plus my Christmas bonus from work, Christmas vouchers sold to a friend and money that was left in an old savings account earning nothing that I just hadn't been bothered to move into my bank account.
Making my new figure £390/£10,082 #0790 -
Still witing for pay day before I can actually tackle any payments! But doing ok with money saving generally - joined the frugal living challenge so that is keeping me focussed - the aim this month is to live on the contents of my Smile account and not resort to using CC or over draft - I started badly by overspending at Christmas and New Year - the plus side is that I have enough food in to make meals for the rest of the month appart from fresh stuff - I have ordered a sainsbobs shop tomorrow using a £15 off voucher and got all the household items - toilet rolls, washing powder etc to last a month or more - so I think I should only need to spend another £50 tops. I have also signed up for the Cancer Research UK Dryathlon so not having any expensive nights out and won;t be buying any wine this month!
Can't wait to make some payments though!!!0 -
i need to wait for payday before i can chuck anymore in the savings pot. next payment comes out tomorrow (clears Monday) so will update tomorrow0
