    Debt savings - [STRIKE]£19,320[/STRIKE]/£18,320 - £1000 paid :T

    Sod it, I had some ebay sales last night, so there I am, £1k towards debt savings :T :T :T :T :D:D:D

    4 parcels posted.

    I also discovered I had £20 in a survey account last night so have redeemed that. I also redeemed £5 amazon yesterday, and used the £10 discount that was on amazon yesterday to get some birthday presents for little jwil and the glut of parties that are coming up!
