I have some things ending on ebay today, Ive updated my signature, just waiting for Aprils statement for store card (which will be ready on tuesday I think) then I will have my total for end of march, some of the cards are a smidge over their limit still, but they should be ok once April payments have gone out I think.
We are concentrating on hammering down CC10 as thats the one with the highest interest.

Hi
Can you complain to MM re the jacket?
Maybe in future photo the box before you seal it? We never had a problem with MM but maybe it's always best to be on the safe side
Well done on the EBay sales..still haven't gotten around to listing mine:(
Must do better..:o

Hi there!!:wave:
Your diary caught my eye as we have an identical starting debt of £44k :eek: as well as also having two little children 4.5 years sound very realistic - and you've already started to make inroads so I reckon you're doing marvellously
I've subscribed and will be here to cheer you on - we can do this!! :j

I've complained to MM and they've asked for my order number and the parcel codes, so need to find the codes from the safe place OH has put them lol, I've never had trouble with them in the past tbh
Thank you u have a few more things ending tonight so I'm hoping for more money lol
Hi daisystar it's eye watering isn't it lol, we currently don't pay the loan back (in laws paid it off for us and we pay them £250 back a month but when we had DD they let us take a year off
In June our mortgage rate drops from 6.29% to 2.% above base rate so if it stays the same it will go down to 2.5% I'm so excited about that lol
Once that goes down we will start paying the loan back as well, I'm so excited to make an overpayment this month, as soon as 30th April hits whatever is left in our bank which should be over £100 is going off CC10

Just checked the ebay for things OH listed last night, and one of his things has a bid of £50 on woo-hoo Im loving all the effort we are putting into selling things
I am serisouly considering buying a edible ink printer and selling cake toppers, have you seen how much money they all make!!!! Its like £80 a day! at least £40 of that is pure profit, the printers are between £120-£200 so I dont think it would take a long time to make your money back?
I am going to think about it a bit more, and research it.Debt £30,823.48/£44,856.56 ~ 06/02/21 - 31.28% Paid OffMortgage (01/04/09 - 01/07/39)
