  • It is so lovely to hear that you are debt free. I am new member so this gives me lots of inspiration. When I have added up my debt I will post it on here and get started on clearing the debt in 2006.

    Have a great Christmas and enjoy your pregnancy.

    I do want to, it's just hard isn't it, they have been with me for so long! But you are right I must find the courage to get rid of them. I can't believe I managed to do it just before Christmas either, its a miracle but I have been strict with my gift buying this year - its not worth getting into debt or staying in debt to keep others happy for just one day.

    Best of luck Peppa Pig - glad I could inspire someone, you'll get there in the end I am sure of it :)

    well done.

    If you are worried about cutting up the cards, why not cut up all but one and put that one away in a drawer so you can get to it when you really need to but it isn't in your purse for everyday temptation


    Good idea - thank you :)
