    Ive paid £350 off and my debts are now lower than for many years but strangely im having negative thoughts-like when ive finished them i'll still have nowt just be on square one lol.
    I reckon you're just born a certain way- basically you're either a spender or saver and im a spender i find saving a mind-numbing bore.

    Just think of it in terms of how much extra disposable income you'll have to spend when you're debt free. Guilt free spending is the best kind. :)

    are we counting mortgage payments as debt payments??
    Ever wonder about those people who spend £2 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backward.

    £56,718.29
    Bank Balance: In the black for the moment.
    Sainsburys Loan: Cleared July 2010
    Credit cards: AMEX Airmiles Card: direct debit set to clear balance monthly
