    I would just love to see the faces on the DCA people when they're checking the accounts and find all these £1 payments :rotfl:

    This is the best thread with such great motivation, a little goes a long way. It just goes to prove that instead of buying that coffee on the way to work in the morning and paying it daily off a debt or whatever really makes an impact! I'm gonna recommend this gets thread of the month :)

    Aw, thank you :o .

    I thought I was going to get some more money for the challenge as my boyfriend and I were doing really well on the Goldenballs game in the pub earlier, but we got a killer right at the end which knocked our £20 down to £2. That was the amount my boyfriend had put in so we broke even :rolleyes: . Never mind :D .

    Grrrrr :mad:

    I've finally managed to set up online thingy for CC, but now my bank wont allow me to make a payment so feeling very frustrated as I have an odd £9 just sat there waiting to whoosh over to CC.

    will try again tomorrow :rolleyes:

    well done everyone today - I'm a bit envious ;)

    Just think, between us we now owe a whole £2 less than we did this morning! :D;)

    I find myself looking forward to tomorrow now, so I can make my next payment! :rotfl: This was a great idea for a thread as I now feel a lot more motivated than I did before.

    :rotfl: indeed! This debt is reducing by the minute....well day...:D

    In fact I am so keen to keep up with this mission that I am logging onto the councils online pay facility as we speak (its 1.08am) to make todays payment. Due to the fact I often forget things, I'll probably get up later and pay again for today. :D that'll be two whole pounds! :rotfl:

    This thread is great, and if I knew how to recommend it as thread of the month, then I would be doing it right now!! :T
