    jen- you'll be debt free by next month at this rate! 2 car boots and selling the wii!
    amy, does this mean we will be losing you to the mortgage free wanabee board??!!!don't desert us yet! Like the new house folder idea, I might do one for the MINI. I love folders and things, bit monica from friends!! Ooh I could do that picture thing that Hypno suggested with the squares representing certain amount of money each in it.

    :rotfl: Im exactly like Monica, but only when its something that interests me. Bills etc. take ages for me to file... stuff like this i love.

    I have a green lever arch folder all ready, a plastic wallet thing in case i need to take stuff to work! Its gonna be great.

    Deffo do what Hypno said, its a great feeling. :j

    I wont desert you, I promise. :D
    Debt: just my mortgage :D

    Good for you, it does make it seem a little less intimidating. I will need to update my house one as i wont need to save as much £ towards it now :T

    if house prices take a dive i will look into buying but i don;t think i could meet the monthy payments. i have a 2 bed rented from mendip housing and would get 10% off the market value. i pay £74 a week in rent and i don;t think i could afford a morgage as i work 19 hours a week and i am a single mum!!!!
    it is gutting i would love to buy

    Ooo thanks MM, i hope so too. :D

    Well i have just found my tenancy agreement for the flat I am in now, just going to read up a few bits as i dont want the council to sting me.

    Whilst riffling through my old paperwork i found 3 debt collectors for different debts from 2003 and 2004. All threatening court action. however i cant see any CCJs on my credit file.

    Not sure whats going on there, just shows how much i had my head in the sand. :rolleyes: :eek:
