    i am going to use the car boot money to pay for 2 weeks holiday club for dd while i am working and i have the 3rd week off.
    i am going to use my quidco money and maybe paypal money towards my debt at the end of the month.
    i can;t wait till the end of the month to see how much i can pay!

    Thats a good idea Jen regarding using boot sale money to pay for holilday club. Your debt at the end of the month will look amazing Jen, and you totally deserve it, you work so hard x

    Well I've been chasing round like a mad fool most of the day after the car boot. OH managed to go to bed for an hour...or rather 3!!!!!!!! So Then this evening was helping DD pack and her NEW rucksack split so I have had to do 3 repair jobs on that-just hope it holds out until after her trip. I have e.mailed the seller and he said to send it back for a full refund. I did tell him that I would have to let her use it for the 3 days in my e.mail-so i hope he realises this!!! Next time I think I will try army and navy stores or similar. So it's now quarter past 10 and I have been awake since just gone 5 this morning and I am absolutely exhausted. Hasn't helped that OH and I have had words tonight so I am cross with him too at the mo. Was gonna go and have a relaxing bath but OH announced (as I was rinsiong bath out after DD) oh don't bother doing that I'm just about to run a bath ... So I won't get my bath tonight coz he weill be well over an hour and I'm too tired to wait up that long-it's been one of those days today............
    (((hugs))) to all.
    Goodnight

    millie monester thanks for joining us i am desperate to make so0me cahs and will do slice the pie for the money!! could be 4 hours every evening while chatting on here and surfing the next but i can't get on the site problems with passwords, activation codes etc!!!!
    what wwill you do with the extra £50 ?? take if off you debt?
    the reason i wanted to mention ytou have made £50 is because a lady on this thread is trying to make £50 by x mas! and we were supporting her looks like it is possible!!! well done to you!

    hi millie, I have no life either but I want to keep what little sanity I have left, I did cancel my membership so I wouldn't be tempted to go back lol, they must give u another star soon!
    Jen - nicki is trying to get to £50 this month not Xmas ! (although that would be difficult enough)
    I think a problem I had with slp was that 70% of the tracks I had to rate were rubbish r&b tracks that all sounded the same.
    Glad u have sorted holiday club Jen , your debt will be tiny at the end of the month!
