Hi... Alton Towers is a great day out and they are doing rooms at the hotel for £99 at the moment too so you could have 2 days away for £99 if you have free tickets and maybe you could get free tickets for the water park too which would cover the 2 days... Sorry shouldn't tempt you when you are supposed to be debt busting but we all need a treat sometimes

I will have a look at that see if OH is interested, thanks KM. If we do go we was planning on staying at OH's nan's house as they live just outside Birmingham which is alot closer than essex! and would be free......but not as much fun!

I should be out of Debt by June by my calculations, so maybe your right, we should treat ourselves......But i was thinking of treating myself to a Wii after debt is paid! OH's dad has one and i love it.

Maybe Alton Towers could be your getting out of debt celebration in June! If tickets and accomodation are free then its just petrol and food so should be an inexpensive weekend if the food is well planned with maybe using clubcard deals for meals.
You're doing really well, June will be here in no time :T

Hi,

Right still no sign of the toluna vouchers so sent them an email.

Ive just ordered a £10 debehams voucher from shopandscan .Hopefully that will get here.....as i have had a new postie for the past 2 weeks now.:think:

Wages have been paid into bank today. I thought it was Tuesdays when wages were meant to be paid so had a nice surprise when i saw my account balance.

I seem to be suffereing with hayfever today, where i live opposite my house are fields of rape flower which really gets up my nose! And me being silly i walk the dog over there everyday! Perhaps 2morrow i will wear a mask over there!...still will get to eyes though....unless i wear googles too!:rotfl:

Right, im off to enter some comps.:D

OMG! last friday i got a Nivea DNAge win through the post. Now ive just had an email to say i have won a Nivea Goody Bag! Yay! Will be here by the end of the week! I cant wait to see what its got in there! I will be adding that onto my £5 a day challenge!

Hey all,

Well still no Toluna vouchers. They replied to my email today saying they buy in batches, and there has been a short delay. If they havent come in another 2 weeks then email them again. I need them soon to get Spark Plugs for my car.

Today i had another small win, a cute jute shopping bag. Its very nice, i will deffo be using it for my shopping with my tesco labybird bag!;) It was a 1 in 10,000 chance of winning the bag! I think i entered in my OH's details for one too, i will find out later if he got one. He wont want it, so i will give it to my mum.

Did an extra 2 hours at work, very little helps.:o I also got my free bic solei razor from tesco. They have been out of stock all last week, but they had plenty this morning. So grabbed one quick, i will be putting that in my 'freebie draw':rotfl: ( which is getting pretty full! ) as i only just brought a venus breeze a while back.

Right i better go do some slicethepie, im at £3.98 so can make £5 easy today.

Hope the slice the pie goes ok, i should do some, just can't be bothered at the moment!

Evening all,

Well i got my £10 Debenhams voucher today. Only had to wait 2 days for that. But still no sign of the halfords vouchers.

At last some of my pending valued opinions points have come through so i ordered another £10 Boots voucher.:D

Ive been saving up all my vouchers i so far have

£50 Boots
£25 Debenhams
£44 Clubcard worth tones more in deals though.

Im planning on saving all my vouchers for when we have a baby. Dont ask me when because we're not sure yet when to start trying. We're so confused on buying or renting or the council homebuy scheme. We want to plan everything properly before i come off the pill. And obviously wait until we're both out of debt.

Which shouldnt be long for me. Every week my wages are staying in my bank, the only spend ive had for ages is £40 petrol, £8 internet and £35 mobile a month. Then maybe a £15 spend a month on any bargins i might spot. We dont go out at all apart from a walk, window shopping or a drive ( in his car!).
I so far have £800 in my bank which is waiting for my next credit card statement to come.

Oh i got a good tesco till spit when i got my free razor yesterday ,350 extra points on a £15 mens clothes spend, so im selling it on ebay. Theres one on there at the mo going for £4.:D

lilmissmup

Those till spits go for loads as they work on anything not just clothes, if i had the money i would buy it off you

Oh and congrats on being so dedicated i got paid today and spent already!

Oh really! i didnt know that! But do you still have to pay the £15 though? As i wouldnt be spending £15 instore thats why im selling it.

I am very dedicated to not spending! Its like an obbession! I drive the OH mad getting on at him for wasting money on Mcd's, dvd's etc.:rotfl: I think even when im out of this last bit £1800 debt, i will still be a tight wad! Coz then need to be saving to move out and start a family.:D
