  • I'll be updating my outstanding debt once a month for the purpose of this challenge - I'm also doing the one payment a day and I don't think you'd be too happy with having to reduce the overall group payment by £1 a day!

    that's my plan too, probably makes Mizmirs job a little easier to manage.

    Well all up to date - welcome milly and smithy - good luck! I am off now for a few days visiting family for Christmas - doubt will get a chance to get online so if you come along and ask to join up don't worry- will get things sorted after the holidays!

    In the meantime have a fantastic Christmas time - enjoy in spite of the debts - and as has been said - may 2009 be the year we all become debt free!

  • Got paid early this month so have paid my bills already, and the total has come to £856.02. I'm like you Skint Spice and like to do it in big lump sums rather then little bits here and there. Then I know it's done by the start of the next month and I can't spend it!

    Hope everyone had a good Christmas. This time next year, eh... Can't wait!

    You can take £448.69 off the grand total, as that is you much I've reduced my debt by since starting this challenge. I will also be updating monthly, makes it easier I think.
