    I paid 28p off a CC today so I certainly hope it does :rotfl:

    Is this possibly the smallest payment so far? :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    I think it possibly is!

    Hi,

    I've been lurking a while, but now it's time to bite the bullet and do this officially!

    I'd like to join the challenge. I have £4000 to clear - £2000 on overdraft, and £2000 on credit card. I reckon that I could be debt free by October 2009, and so that's my challenge!

    Looking forward to joining in the dfw fun! :)

    The Dragon, thanks for your support, yes her teeth really are costing that much....but yet they are not bad enough to qualify for NHS treatment! Plus I am being rather fussy about the whole thing!

    I reckon if i sell the rings I will be on target a lot quicker, and they are no good stuck in the draw with 4 years of dust on them!

    Sort of like us with the timeshare my parents gave us, because we have somewhere else to live Council wouldn't give us CT relief, but DWP says it is not somewhere else to live :mad: um 'scuse me but WHAT??! Everyone making a different decision *sigh*

    I reckon if i sell the rings I will be on target a lot quicker, and they are no good stuck in the draw with 4 years of dust on them!

    In that case go for it!
