The 'Extra Payment Every Week' Thread 2016

Welcome to 2016 and the 5th year of this thread!

The idea was conceived by inamin in 2012, continued by Betty Crumble in 2013 and then taken over by yours truly! In that time it has helped keep lots of us on track and clear thousands of extra debt £££££s.

SO, the idea of this is that we all make a decision to make ONE additional payment every week towards one of your debts. It doesn't have to be the same debt every week (although that may be a good idea if you have one that is more expensive than the others) and it can be for as much or as little as you like.

However, if it helps, then you are more than welcome change the focus from a debt to a savings goal, that's ok too!!

There is really only one rule and that is that the payment must be above and beyond your usual minimum or planned payments (so no taking it off your minimum and then paying less on the due date!!!! )

If you want to state your goal/debt in your first post then please do so, we like a bit of waffle

A signature line that states your amount that week, then cleared and added to your total at the end of the week so we can all see where we're at when we post is a good idea too. Personally, I've left previous years' totals on mine too, I love seeing that I've cleared over £2.5k in extra payments in the last 3 years using this thread!!

No amount is too small! Every little helps as they say in a certain blue supermarket! Where you find the extra money from is up to you!

Everyone is welcome and I look forward to having you on board.
