Comments

I wish I could find a tenner!
New mobile phone arrived today, have put it straight on ebay and for 1 day so will finish tomorrow. Have to unlock my phone for new sim pah I hate it when they do that!
Hopefully money transferred back on to my bank card so clear tomorrow which means my dh can have a bit of money whilst he's at Uni for the week.
Trying not to book any appointments next week so won't need petrol and can work from home preparing my teaching file :eek:
Now shall I talk to dh about tighting our belts for a few weeks to clear overdraft when he comes back on Friday or wait until he's back in family mode on Saturday
Other than that have some books listed on Amazon so hopefully they'll sell quickly.

Great shelby131 I will get my stuff ready for mega sell on e-bay.I have paid a few bits today so my new totals are
1)£266.34 tsb loan
2)£469 MBNA
3)£203.07 MINT
Im hoping to be really good and what is left in my current account at the end of the month will be thrown at tsb loan in the hope of clearing it.Then they will allow me to close my account with them for which they charge me £7.50 a month to not use.Thats my plan but something usually comes alont to spoil it so fingers crossed.Im also going to throw all e-bay money at it and my change jar and my quidco earnings.Im on a mission now.0 -

Just paid another £160 off the capital one card ... was going to wait until payday tomorrow, but as it is sat there now and I don't need the money today, it may as well go and then it removes temptation! So I have paid off £225.93 todayOlympic Countdown Challenge #145 ~ DFW Nerd #389 ~ Debt Free Date: [STRIKE]December 2015[/STRIKE] September 2015
