    Great November total everyone.


    PAD today of £30 to OH's cc please Sunshine.


    Bob - I like that saying - in fact it embodies the power of PAD - you might not think all these little payments are worth it but we are all proof that little and often, keep chipping away, definitely works. You only need to be active on this thread for a short while to be inspired by how all these persistent little bits help towards each milestone and go to show that, as you say, thinking you CAN do something about it really works.

    Morning,

    Following a 0% transfer offer my PAD today of £10.87 clears the Halifax card and leaves me with just 3 creditors (used to be 7)

    Whoop!

    So my PAD for today is £370! Yay! We opened a Help2Buy ISA (well OH did, I'm not allowed one as I had a mortgage many years ago)

    Anyway we moved some funds around but £350 of it came from wages rather than existing savings. Also paid another £20 off the Barclaycard :)

    Have a good day everyone x

    anyone being flooded or having life troubles with the weather

    Firstly hugs and prayers

    And secondly - padding can wait; we can wait - some things in life are more important

    We've added to our debt considerably over the last week as we had to buy a generator, two deep pumps, one puddle pump, hose, petrol and emergency food....but, insurance company will reimburse us, so hopefully won't be out of pocket too long.

    I feel like Nat King Cole...smile though your heart is aching...I must not let it get me down.
