Credit card paid off, only one debt left!!

Although it was due to go out on a standing order on the 28th, I decided to make my final payment to my credit card today, as I am now in the relevant pay month.

This means I have only one more debt to pay off!!!! :j Not counting the mortgage of course.

I have been feeling very low and this has given me a much-needed boost.

Just thought I'd share my happiness :D

    Well done lady!!

    So the car just to pay off - can you pay it off any quicker or are the payments set in stone?.......

    It's so awful when you are in debt....the days seem to go so slow....waiting for your next set of wages!!! I get paid weekly and that seems to drag!
