    Hi boo,
    I think different people use slighty differnt weeks depending on what suits them. I always used to to Wed to Tue as Wednesday was my day off so that's when I got all the shopping/banking/etc done. Lucky usually seems to make her payments on a Friday. There's no need to stick to a particular day though. I'm taking the weekend as the end of the week, this year but use whatever works for you.

    Totally agree, whatever works for you. I make Friday payments and then I know if I make any payments on a different day then I can add it to the 'current week's payments. Every Friday a fresh week starts, even if I can't afford to make a payment.

    I hope that's clear enough, it sounded better in my head!! Xx

    Can I join again please? I was late to the party last year and didn't do very well at all. In fact I think eventually my debt went up 😢 ignore the signature, it needs updating...
