I'm sure you've updated your signature! Wasn't that £3k something a few days ago or am imagining it?

You're not imagining it (it was £3,300) but it's a bit of figure manipulating really
I was offered a 12 month 0% bt by one of my empty cards (not the one that only lets me transfer from cards in my name) but it only has a 1k limit so we transferred about £900 across (hence it going from 3/7 debts to 3/8) and then paid a couple of hundred quid off it too as we had some left over on pay day :j
The bt rate on the card mentioned in my signature ends 28th December, really hoping it's zero by then :j
I'll draw up a list of what we owe again at the end of the month (payday :j )

Better jot down my spending for yesterday

£2.40 on eating out (work lunch with colleagues I don't see very often)
£6.69 on groceries

Total spend for the day £9.09


The months about to get expensive need to pay childcare fees, I'm treating myself to a new hairdo (not had it done in a year) and we've got a family dinner out which won't be cheap either

If I'd been here and put a diary on when we had our LBM I'd have been here about 4 years by now
I've popped over and subscribed to your diary :T

Going to have a quick count of our shiny coin pot and money box, this is our house reservation fee box am hoping there's a hundred quid between the 2

Edit: £18.24 in the money box and £113.31 in the shiny coin box :eek:
Total of £131.55 :j

Well my attention to detail was on the ball there lol :rotfl: :rotfl:

even though it's figure manipulating, it is still a success and that deserves a clap :T :T :T 0% = good news (at least payments to that will be off the debt not the interest)

keep at it dipdap, your getting there :money:
