hey diary!
Although I have been quiet I have still been good and just plodding along till payday, i had been saving up my change and have £8 so I will pay that in tomorrow and pay it off of my credit card, I don't want to be paying small amounts to OH mum.
I get paid Tuesday, no idea how much yet as don't get my wage slip till tomorrow but should have a little overtime so I am hoping to make another payment to OH mum and get this debt down!!!
I am so organised with xmas that I am done with almost all of my shopping except OH, and all without the use of any credit cards what so ever - this is a first for me!!!
Although now I am going to start putting small amounts away as of january for next xmas and get ahead!
I have been doing surveys on valued opinions to get some more vouchers which I am going to use one of OH xmas presents as it will leave more cash in my account for debts.
Tomorrow is the day I promise never to have any more slip ups with smoking, I have been bad this weekend and even bought a couple of packs which is silly and money wasted that could have gone to debts!
I will be back with an update on Tuesday!!

Hey insanity buddy
! (p.s. if you need links for it I can mail you!)
How good are you doing! Defo right on the ball with it all and surveys as well! Good on not using credit cards. If you are with Tesco join Tesco Orchard club I get loads freebies with that and just got £5 to spend on a gift set and review it for 75 point

Hi Laura, and everyone. Sounds like your all doing really well on the debt busting, healthy eating front - wish I was :0( Just come back from Florida, ate far too much, drank loads and haven't done any exercise, feel so unfit. Sorry to but in about insanity, is it as good as the hype? It just seems such a lot of money, can't really justify it at the moment, but desperately need to get fit. I'd LOVE to be a size 10!!0

Insanity does seem expensive that was why I was unsure

My two pence about the surveys, I have had £40 worth of vouchers from Valued Opinions in about 5 months.
I have cashed out to Paypal £20 from Opinion World and have a further £23 still to come. Its instant once you claim it too. I only started Opinion World on the 15th October!Sealed Pot Challenge:
2014 = £202
2015 = £3820
