Afternoon all, well i've had a few wins on the free bingo so will eventually get round to withdrawing that and will use the free money to go towards my credit card payment when the 0% deal runs out.
Am hoping to speak to my partner later and try and finally sort out the funding for my O.U course. i am on a low wage and so should be entitled to some grant/money towards my fees, but because he's self employed i've had to wait on him sorting out his tax forms, but if i don't do it soon i will loose my chance to claim.
Other than that i have some vouchers listed on ebay which will finish on Sunday, so should add some extra for my total. Hope everyone else is doing well.:j Live on £4500, £2531/£4500:T 101 in 1001 (52/101):j:beer::j

If I am a VERY good girl then at the end of this month I will have £200 left from my salary to throw at my credit card, add to that the £15 I have been under budget on a couple of weeks and the £9.40 from flogging stuff on Play.com and it will take my total paid for this month to £1639.40.
Fingers crossed for being a good girl.
I also have £800 sitting in an account, I had been saving it for a flight to Aus to see friends I haven't seen for ages but then (about the time of LBM) decided to put it against my debt; before I could do that I discovered that my flatmate (and landlord) needs to sell where I live so it has to sit there in caseI need a deposit. Hopefully I won't and then I can throw it at a card but at the moment it is in annoying limbo. Argh.£34,547 (Dec 07); Current debt: £zilch (Debt free December 2010)

Another 80 quid to add to the total. Well done everyone!CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J0

Ooh poorandindenial, thats great going, just remember to be good now.
Debt free me, well done on the bingo win. I haven't had much look with the bingo wins, but won about £80 altogether from all the sites, might have to get my fella to start playing!
Well am a bit annoyed with myself as have been too busy faffing and putting off matched betting, even though i've done it loads and know its a great way to make money, just laziness stopping me. Threw myself into it this afternoon and have placed two matched bets and am now wondering why i didn't do them sooner. I don't have any more money left in my account to do any more bets. However i will make it my target for next month to place lots more matched bets.
Hope everyone is doing well.:j Live on £4500, £2531/£4500:T 101 in 1001 (52/101):j:beer::j
