Morning. I am still tad fragile from free bar... I did not get home until 4 am and also met a guy. I have a date Friday. Drunk me apparently declared he was hot and somehow went over and got his number hahaha. See what happens, we were texting yesterday and he asked.
I am too scared to check my bank account this is a very scary task for me right now!

Wow - £3k by Christmas would be nice wouldn't it? But I think your target is realistic that by next summer you'll drop £3k. It's good to have these goals to pay extra bits in here and there. Once we're debt free, i'd like to make mortgage overpayments a regular thing if we can. By then my youngest will be in school too so should be a decent amount of extra disposable income!
I think i'd only bother taking out a store card (i've never had one) if there was a brilliant incentive on it and I was able to pay off the balance straight away.Sealed Pot Challenge 075
Pay off by Xmas 2019 #02 - target £10,0000 -
I was a bit iritated cos I kept saying no I saved this money I dont want to add to my debt and shes like oh but 12 months to pay off. Excuse me as I had to fight to get good credit rating (gone since mortgage finding lol!) I dont want more debt added
unless they get a bonus adding argos cards to ppl thats a no for me.
