    Ooo thats a good deal Hayley.

    Well im so bored, and i havent gone for my bath yet, got caught up on the 'puter. :rolleyes:

    I will be going to have a bath now... promise.

    Well i doubt i will be completly debt free this year, but i think i will be "interest paying" debt free by November time (fingers crossed).

    Ooo i have worked out to pay off my interest paying debt (i.e. not my mum!) i need an extra £62 a week.

    Fingers crossed that should be doable. I already have about £80 in Quidco. £100 in my bank. £100 in paypal. Hmmmmm fingers crossed anyway!

    WOW - so far this year I have paid off £1,592.23 off my debt. I'm very very pleased with that.

    Its such a nice feeling knowing how much you have lowered your debt by.

    Only another 3K to go now, and I expect that to be gone by October/November time.

    Thanks Amy & Jen :D

    I have MSE to thank for it, if i didn't find this website i would have a lot more debt than i do now, and would probably still be spending money i don't have.

    Heres to MSE - the best website on the internet!!!!

    Here Here Hayley, well said...

    :beer:

    I would still be "ignoring" my debts! :rolleyes: And the credit card would still be in one piece! :rotfl:

    I have had my bath, and feel relaxed... still not sleepy but i might go to bed in a bit and read my book.
