Checking Balance etc

May 8th, 2015 at 09:39 am

This morning I signed on to my catalogue to check the balance. It hasn't updated yet. This is unusual for me, normally I would only check what my new minimum payment is. I really am determined to get rid of it.

I think someone asked if I could transfer the balance. I don't think I can, it's not a credit card so I don't know how that would work. (Although Littlewoods keep emailing me because I have the option of a credit card too, plus my catalogue. No thanks)

I paid the deposit for the cake smash/photo shoot this morning. That was 40.00.

I spoke to Dh and told him the prices of the hotels and train fares that I'd seen. It was 150+ each for train fares (kids travel free) plus the hotel was over 100, plus spending money, so it's not likely to happen. I did say we could check again nearer the time because I couldn't find prices for train fares for September, it's too far away.

I need to total up my discount card savings this week and divide the snowflakes between the catalogue and EF.

    I wonder what your interest rates are over there for a consolidated loan for the catalog and credit cards combined? This is just me musing.. And I'm sure DH is happy you considered going even if it's not affordable

    If you had a low-interest credit card, could you pay the catalog off with that?

    Can you pay off the catalogue with a credit card? anything ahs to be cheaper than 40%.

    And then close the catalogue account?

    I do hope that the trip to visit family can be managed. Fingers crossed you find some excellent deals.

    Some day I want to travel in the UK. A dream trip for sure, though.

    I had similar thoughts as the others - maybe a consolidation loan, or paying off with a credit card.

    I was in the same train of thought...any way to get a loan with a lower interest to pay it off?
