I still can't think of a witty name for my diary.

I kind of abandoned the last diary & need somewhere new to post my wittering.

I have approx £4000 to pay off.

I have

:D - refused proposed credit increase to £750 from Cap1.
:D - started using my imutal & 1 poll accounts again
:D - joined some bzz campaigns
:D - started using noddle account

I am now expecting so it's time to grow up :D:p

    Congrats on the bump.
    Have you done a SOA to see if you have anywhere you can cut back?
  • Thank you Roxy :)

    I have previously done a SOA but it is quite out of date now. I may do another for info but to be honest I do not think it will be a very useful tool for me/make a difference to the amount I pay off.

    Hmm the weekend

    :D Comping :)
    :D imutual, 1poll, SB & GH
    :D No take-aways

  • I couldn't think of anything inspiring for a diary title, either (and I think some of the titles here are a bit OTT ;) ) so I just went with 'pickle me's diary'. Short and sweet :rotfl:

    Congrats on the pregnancy, when are you due? And good luck with the debtbusting :)

    Thanks for that I will look up Gifthulk.

    Do you get any referral bonus for GH or Bzz?
  • Hello. There are referral bonuses for GH (I will PM you a link if you like if you decide to join up).

    Bzz - does not look like you do. I have found a few on the net but some say they do not think it benefits either side doing it that way.
