    Morning everyone.

    Payday here tomorrow (How sad am I that I am excited about it!)

    £9.63 for me today, left over from last payday.

    So cold here today - have had to put the heating on. If it was just me I would ride it out, but have two small children (21 months and 2 months) so need to keep the place toasty.

    Payday here tomorrow too, so will be able to shuffle money and pay a nice chunk off the cards.... should be able to clear the FD one (£120.66) completely, then start on whichever the snowball says is next....

    Evening everyone - sorry haven't been on all day - took twice as long as normal to get to work so have been playing catch up all day!

    Well done frasersmum and SarahNeedle for the payments - we've passed our first group milestone - over £1K paid off since we started - not bad in a few days. Only £220K to go!! :eek::D

    Am sure we'll do it!

    Wow not bad going! Except the interest has gone on my CC so that £50 has been wiped out!

    I agree Frasersmum - every little helps. I check my online banking everyday and transfer the pennies balance to one of my credit cards. Doing that is reducing it really quickly without me missing the cash.

    Evening everyone. :j

    Didn't get time to get on yesterday but just checked out the front page and our total is fantastic. I really hope we can pay off that amount by the end of the 2009 it will be such an achievement.

    No payments made for me yet but waiting for some cash to come in and then hopefully I will be able to.

    Morning everyone

    £30 for me today - have also reduced my credit limit on the card so that I cant add anymore to it if I have a moment of weakness (which are becoming rarer but still hit me!)

    I cant believe how much we have paid off already. It fantastic that we are hitting some greedy companies right where it hurts!

    Have a great Friday everyone xxx
