    Yes the £21 for the sofa is monthly, its only just started and I think its for 2 years! Will dig out the paperwork later on.

    The £100 is what I'd like to pay back each month to my mum, she loaned me the money a year ago so its pretty terrible to have only paid her £150 back so far. She is in no rush for the money though as she knows how tough this year has been for me so far (some months i only earned £500 so could only cover essential bills), it is my own target to get it back to her in 12 months.

    I should of said the £30 was for Birthdays as well as xmas, maybe it is a bit much though. Last year I managed to do most of it using money from surveys and mystery shopping etc but i've not done much of that this year. Time to get going again i think.

    I've just had the cat at the vets, was just for her routine injections but it seems she is going to need her teeth done in the next 6 months! God know what that will cost so I've asked them for a quote so I can save up. There's always something isn't there.

    Well i got my mobile bill today, Good news is that I shouldn't have to pay my bill for 4 months as i'm £60 in credit!! Its because I recommended 2 people and they've both hit my bill this month. I'll put the money I would've spent towards my debt, its not much but I guess its a start.
