Good morning and happy Thursday! It feels really mild this morning compared to the past few days which is a good thing for the energy bill
Today is a NSD for me, so I have sent £5 to the credit card as my standard PAD and then another £5 from a Vinted sale. There's nothing else so far on Prolific and still £28 pending on Vinted for things in transit. I had a message about being able to post an item today if it was purchased in the night so there might be a sale later there.
I now have 70 days until I am debt free. I got my first credit card when I went to Uni in September 1996 and I think ever since then I've had a balance of some sort. I am horrified to think of how much interest I have paid in that time (9635 days ago, according to Siri) I've no idea how I would even guestimate it to be honest but even looking at the number of days is shocking.
Anyway, on that bombshell, I'm off to work. See you all later and have the loveliest of days.

Good morning and Happy Friday! Hubby woke me when he left for work and I’ve not been able to get back to sleep.
I’ve made a £6 PAD to the credit card this morning, this rounded down the bank account. Today will be a NSD, I have another busy day at work ahead so I think I will make the most of being up early before I start!
I have checked Prolific, nothing to cash out yet. It’s been quiet on there of late but you all know I keep an eye on it throughout the day wherever I can.
I sold another item on Vinted yesterday so that’s another £9 I’ll get once it’s landed
Have a fab day everyone!LMD xLife gets in the way...PADding is addictive...Saving's better than spending...My savings diary - Now for a healthier, wealthier me2025 1p challenge #41 | Cash envelope challenge #01 | SPC #017Sealed pot 2025 £5678 | EF £1000/£1000 | Sabbatical £3188/£6000 | Travel savings £1924 | Sinking pots £21263
