    Well another loan payment has gone out today so i am now under £600 in debt :D

    On another good note i have £27.73 scheduled to pay out on quidco too but not sure whether to put that in New York Fund or towards paying off the loan a month early.

    Bit !!!!!! with Quidco though as i am still waiting for HSW money from April onwards and also 45p from March for Coke Zone and 10p in January for Shopping.com (which i doubt will ever come).

    High street web used to be a really regular payer too.

    I haven't bothered doing any daily clicks on Quidco this month although at least Kelkoo and win 4 now are still paying up so might do them next month.

    Just renewed Izzy's insurance with Petguard for £25 cashback via quidco.

    Her cover is nearly the same level as Spencers now and was a little bit more expensive than this year but the cashback makes up for it plus its £3000 more worth of cover.

    I am paying way too much for Spencers cover though really.

    If i didn't have it and something happened though i would be gutted especially as i had to claim £2250 for Spencer when he was just a baby :eek: so its well worth it and i will never not have it! Getting cashback is good though. :D

    Well done on being under £600! :beer: :T

    and fab news about the cash back from Quidco, and the better cover to boot!

    I know what you mean about insurance, i pay £29 for both my cats a month, but its well worth it as one was very very ill when he was a kitten and I spent out about £2K in vets bills. Well worth having insurance!

    The cashback hasn't tracked yet which is a pain as says should track within 24 hours normally, hoping it appears or will have to raise an enquiry. :rolleyes:

    BUT my quidco amount to payout for this month is now £53.69. HSW has finally paid up from April onwards!

    Now do i put it in the New York Fund or towards paying off the loan a month early (which is starting to look a little impossible now.....) :rolleyes:

    I guess i should update this!

    Well my quidco money has gone towards paying off the loan early and the insurance never tracked so have to open an enquiry next week :mad:

    I am super duper skint and quite down about it too.

    I tried to wipe a hard drive on my old pc to be able to sell it but it went wrong and now looks like i will only be able to sell without the hard drive....:(

    This time next month i will be debt free though! :T
