I'm like a moth to a flame!!!!!!!!

[Claire!]

When it comes to shopping and sales!!!!!!!

 

Went to pay off an overdraft at lunchtime, but i got caught in the maddness which is the Sales and i ended up buying some more new summer tops!!!!!!

 

Still, i thought to myself, seeing as i've hit me target, and all my other tops are way too baggy to show off my new trim(ish) figure, i shall treat myself to a few!!!!!!!!!!

 

I mean, i don't like looking scraggy, you never know who's checking you out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

How's the overdraft now!

[Claire!]

LOL!!!!!!!

 

Overdraft is fine!!!! Payed that off!!!!! It's the credit card i stuck the tops on!!!!!!!!!

 

LOL!!!!!!

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

I'd call that simply transferring the debt!

My opinion if you can't pay for it today with the readies (or a debit card at least) then you can't have it!

I'll remind you of that when you decide to take out a mortgage, Thornsy.

If you use Credit Cards sensibly, you can effectively get 21-49 days' free-credit on everything you buy, so long as you pay your bill in full each month.

 

Therefore, it is your credit card company that is paying any interest accumulated during that time, which I thought would appeal to an anti-Capitalist like your good self, Mr Thorns!!

 

Of course, if you're anything like me, you end up spending six years trying to pay off your £10k balances!!

 

 

[Claire!]

Hmmmmmm, or if you're like me, have three credit cards up to their limits, but keep on spending!!!!!!!!!

 

I am trying to sort it out though!!!!!!!!

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

I have had one credit card which is annoying me, I've only ever used it for buying stuff off the net (like subscritions to dirty sites <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />) and it's up to about 500 quid, I never use it (as I have a visa debit now) and 5% get paid off every month with the intrest it's about 2.5%. I'm gonna get a new one with 0% for 6 months pay it off and then rip them up for ever!

 

As for the anti-capitalist bit they charge the stores about 2% for every transaction and we all know most people don't pay it off every month!

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

The poor shops being charged 2%, eh!!?

 

Cos you've never shoplifted!!

 

 

[Claire!]

My interest on my egg card is £30 at the moment, and i can only afford to pay off £50 each month!!!!!!!
