Hi Everyone
Well I think it has been a week since I first logged on and confessed my sins and since then I have been so much more positive about the position I am in and what I am gonna do about it. I took various bits of advice and have now stopped the savings going into the childrens accounts, these hadn't been going too long but there was about £600 in there. I have decided to encash this along with a £200 premium bonds and pay it off my debt. I feel really guilty doing it cos it was for the kids when they grow up, but I have decided that as soon as I repay my debts, I will chuck loads into an investment for them. my oh has also put some vhs onto dvd for some friends from work and has made £40 this week so it is all adding up.
My diet is going well cos have also started taking salad to work rather than buying lunch although I did slip up and bought a latte today - oops:o
Am also going to transfer some more of the balance of my egg card onto OH barclaycard cos it is 0% and tray and get the bigs ones down even quicker. Anyway had better go and iron uniforms - my 5 year old is back at scholl tomorrow - woo hoo!! Thanks for all your help and it is great coming on here and reading other messages cos it really helps keep me focussed xx

Hi Not been doing too much what with work etc, but have shifted some of my egg card onto 0% and awaiting chq of £800 which will come straight off egg card too woo hoo. started my £2 jar and my penny jar.
Recently found quidco- it is great made £30.10 so far but a bit confused with what I can click, when and how often and what would be classed as fraudulent. Also would my oh be able to register in his name so we get double the clicks?? showed him it today and he is really interested.
Have seen pigsback on some signatures, could someone let me know what this is and is it any good?
Thanks loads hope to hear from someone soon xLBM Aug 2007 Total debt £51K OMG!!!:(
