    Sarahs999 we all need a treat now and again so don't feel bad. I have paid off the pricely sum of £5.44 to MBNA, just recovering from a very high gas bill, waiting for some payments for MS jobs. This is my only debt other than my mortgage - which I have arranged an overpayment of £50.00 per month to start next month.
    Keep up the good work everyone.
    Mortgage £25,789.17/£24,918.14/£22,921.47
    Pay off £20k by Xmas 2010 - £16,360.00

    Another £36.75 at Nationwide for me today.

    Can't believe I've already managed to pay £537.48 off against my mini-challenge for this month, I really thought I was aiming for the stars, but maybe I should push myself this hard next month too! :j

    Very very happy with the way this is spurring me on - well done everyone, this is such an inspirational thread! :beer:

    Have just taken a good look at my finances and decided to pay off an additional £126.

    Why that amount, I hear you ask? :) - Its because that amount takes my total debt to £29,999 (after my work loan comes out next week!).

    Break out the champagne!
