£116.38 paid off CCs! The new total is -£16,677.07 and I've just sold an item on eB@y that should net £20-25. With that, mobile phone cashback, the FIT payment and some general scrambling down the side of couches, I should be able to hit my Christmas mini target of -£16,500 :j0

£21.48 paid off a CC (eB@y money and a very small bank error in my favour) Knackered, trying to list a few eB@y items before bed.
Edit: eB@y items listed, £63 sticker price, but likely to be 1/2 that after fees, charity donation and postage. Hey ho, it all helps!0 -

Oops! a £48 DD has come off my current account for a CC that I had assumed wouldn't be taken because of all my ad hoc payments. As I didn't have a spare £48, I will try to right the ship as best I can :rotfl:
New balance is -£16,606.30 :santa2:
Today is my last full day of work for the week, wee half day tomorrow and then long weekend :j0 -

Happy long weekend
It's a nuisance, but I'm making up the difference already, sold an eB@y item this afternoon. £10.57 after eB@y and Paypal fees, charitable donation and postage
Only 4.5 hours 'til the long weekend
*Edit: £12.57 paid off a CC - eB@y sale and H@lifax reward. I'll find that £48 somewhere! £93.74 to be on the right side of £16,500.0 -
