Well I had to laugh at my post today ....
I got a letter from Provident offering some help to get me through Christmas. I could borrow between £50 and £500 today just by calling their number ....
.... The APR? Wait for it ......:eek: 183.2% typical APR :eek:Needless to say it went straight into the recycling bin!!!!!
Oh and they now do their loans in credit card format at the same APR - and we thought Vanquis were bad!!!Olympic Countdown Challenge #145 ~ DFW Nerd #389 ~ Debt Free Date: [STRIKE]December 2015[/STRIKE] September 2015

I've just seen I'll be paid £156 by Quidco today........fandabbydozee!!!! I've also got the £50 from topcashback already in my Paypal account.
£206 for doing not very much........cool.......
I've still got £141 tracked so hopefully I'll get that at the end of December
I guess I should be good and put the money towards the £682 tax bill I need to pay by the end of January......

Hi guys!! I am working tomorrow - clients in the morning, bar in the afternoon/evening.
Then in between I must get some other work done - have looooooaaaads of it! Also need to finish an assignment for college by Tuesday.
Hmm.....must keep away from MSE!! (maybe

phew, just had a mammoth session on Quidco......of course I want to be contacted by Hillarys blinds for an appointment for new conservatory blinds!!!
(the fact that requesting an appointment gets a £20 quidco payment has nothing to do with it
........and as I don't have a conservatory.........:whistle: ) "Stay Wonky":D

I've received 13 payments today- totalling about £136! Just when I needed it too- lots of Christmas shopping to do. Never thought I'd get anything back from Kelkoo, I've been waiting months, but all my searches over the months at 10p a go have paid off!!!
