    Spendy couple of weeks - as expected, dishwasher quote degenerated into new kitchen quote!

    Quote was a lot less than I thought it would be and a 1 year ISA maturing so am going to use that for the fitting, the units etc are coming out a mix of current account and Lyds card, I've discovered payin3 so feels better somehow than putting it on "proper" credit. I have spent hours looking for deals, found a high st (well retail park these days!) electric outlet on Ebay so dishwasher for under £150 delivered and the units are partly from the orange diy shop as they fortuitously had a 15% code last weekend. Current project cost for new kitchen inc fitting is comfortably under £3k. The plumber quote also includes a niggling bathroom job.

    So that's a LOT of money out - new money in is teenmonsters helped me clear out the garage and someone else on the estate is going to rent it for storage from next weekend, 75 quid a month.

    July 2024 £12,150  Mar 26 B/card £5,646, H/fax £3,133, Llyds £834, Klarna £170, V3ry £50 Total £9,833 1% backwards this month, damn, will be sorted next month
