    More good news - when I switched utilities a while back I did it via Martin's Cheap Energy Club and I've just got £30 cashback as a result - so of course, like a true MSE disciple I have padded it straight to the cc.


    Won't be on again for a few days due to the festivities so wishing all my padding friends a very Happy Christmas and hope we all have a flood-free, car-emergency free, domestic repair emergency free and very prosperous New Year.

    What happened yesterday, did the money grow on trees or have we just made extra effort pre-Christmas? An incredible £1916.87 was PADded yesterday! Well done to every single one of us!

    Happy Christmas Eve Padders! Wishing you all an amazing Christmas with lots of happy memories made.

    Sunshine, £7.15 to MBNA for me today please. Like a true addict I'm still planning to PAD tomorrow but may not be able to get on to post depending on time!
    Let’s just pretend I have not been alternately drowning in debt or only eating toast to try and pay it off for the last 20 years 😭
