My total for December is £730!!
Which I'm very pleased with, I just hope Jan is as good!Pay off all your debt by Xmas 2012Aim £8200Total so far £3700Left £45000 -
Dec total for us £4623/ £15000.
A great start - but it will not carry on like that! DH has now claimed most of his outstanding expenses so future payments will be from earnings and any extra money like ebay etc. We also priced up a 2 week holiday for us in the summer last night - £3k!!! And that's not somewhere exotic - just 2 weeks in a mobile home in France (for 2 adults and 4 children) - eek!!!
Ah well - 5p listing day on ebay today, so those duplicate presents are going on there, plus a couple of other extra bits if I get myself organised!!

That is an excellent start, greent! Very motivating, even if you know that progress will slow down!Successful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes. (Maud Van de Venne)Life begins at the end of your comfort zone (Neale Donald Walsch)0

Hello everyone
I have paid off 768.60 so far :j
Quite abit off target for the month but if I wasnt doing this challenge I wouldnt of paid off as much as that and would probably have spent on my CC.
Well done everybody on how much has been paid off. :T
Roll on January, when I can pull my socks up and do some serious debt busting.

A bit of a tricky month this one, so a bit a slow start. Paid off £214.90 so far in Dec - well of target. No major expenses expected for Jan, Feb, so hoping to really kick-start this into action then.0
