A great big thank you to Martin as I have had the great satisfaction of today writing out a cheque which is the last payment on one of my credit card debts. :j :j :j :j :j
I transferred my debt last year onto two different credit cards, both 0% interest for balance transfers of course! As soon as I received the cards I cut them up to prevent me using them for any purchases and it is a fab feeling to realise I managed to have a card for 9 months and not use it after the initial balance transfer.
Another 7 months to go and I am hoping to be completely debt free. :money:
