  • Got paid early including a wee bonus - made overpayments to 2 credit cards totalling £314.95. Looking forward to the big payments coming off in January :D

    Updated amount for this challenge but not changed debt totals until they clear.

    Merry Christmas to everyone on this challenge! Just think, this time next year we'll be so much better off!

    I don't think I've posted here since I joined (the usual lack of organisation) but it's great to see everyone doing really well. We've paid off the usual monthly payments last week but nothing extra this month. Will update my sig when I get around to sorting out my finances (again!) in the new year.

    Hope you all have a fab Christmas!

  • Evening all...just done my figures and made my payments for the month...will eat into o/d and will be a VERY frugal month but have lots of food in and no reason to spend so should be doable plus just realised how much interest I pay on two cc's that need sorting...ie despite paying off 40 on one card 25 of that will be interest which is just carp. Happy with whats been paid tis month but Jan will be a pulling the socks up, stop faffing (again) and moving on to get ths sorted - esp the cc's - loans I can do nowt about but cc's I can...hugs all.

    Happy christmas all.
