    Hypno, are you sure you want totals in May? End of June would be halfway through year....

    We started on 1st December, so end of May is 6 months.....It is actually a 12 month and 3 week challenge :o

    Hi, I just found you today and would like to join for haf the year if I may. I will need to calculate how much I actually owe on credit cards but believe it to be around £7000, so will aim for that for now.

    Just reading all your posts has been truly inspirational so I would like to congratulate everyone on their successes. I am on benefits and DH is on a pension but we are trying to live on next to nothing for now.

    A loan payment has been made today, so after interest, my debt has reduced by £30.43.......

    Payday at the end of this week so hopefully will be able to pay off a little more then.....

    I won £25 today on bingo at foxy, and it was with the free money, yay me. I will add that to my total.
  • Well, hopefully spending on CC's has come to halt as now have enough to cover all remaining spends on new shop. Just saying that has probably jinxed it (aaaggghh)
    SO......... £101.13 off Mint CC today so have updated siggie. Next month hope to start repayments at an accelerated rate.

    Love Suzi xx
