Ah Great - we are starting today - woop woop!

told OH about this challenge last nite - he is now convinced I am completely crazy. Oh well least he loves me eh?

ALTHOUGH he has just rung me from work and has managed to sell 30 quids worth of our really old cds! his work mates have clearly got bad taste in music. he he.

anyway... will sort my spreadsheets etc and put my figures on here later. payments dont go out till monday though but thats fine as I know they will.

Good going chaps!

I have just made my first payment - a massive £6.99 :j

Only £19,993.01 to go!! At least the amount is going down!
Im looking forward to watching mine and everybody elses total left go down, and to hearing about how people are achieving it.

Good luck everyone

Ooo - just checked and another £49.62 has gone out against the debts. Have updated total. Only £19710.38 to go!

Oh goody we're starting today, which is great as i've just been paid and have been able to sit down, calculator in hand and see what i'm working with. Bearing in mind it's Christmas very shortly and I haven't done much towards that yet, December will be a month when I won't be able to make very much in the way of over payments. But that said at least £816.06 will be paid off in the next week so that seems like a pretty good start. Only £14,186.94 of £15k to go. Will update signature as and when payments are made. Good luck everyone!!

I'm late but add me to the list...I will go for £15k I think.

This isn't all debt but the excess will start my savings account.

Not sure I will do with savings...have some for emergencies and then overpay the mortgage :j :j

better go and update my siggy again!

It will be a challenge but I'm in! Will update my signature so that you can see my debt in all its shining glory...

First achievement! Have paid £206 off the MBNA card - horrendous interest rate I know, but I can't apply for a new card at the moment as tried a few times earlier this year and kept being rejected! Will update signature once the payment has been credited to the account.
