thats a really good idea about the interest thanks!
Welcome, I'm sureIt works well for me as I have various accounts (gifts/holidays etc.) where it makes more sense for me to keep just the capital balance. For example, if I make random additional payments I like to see the true balance, not the balance plus interest. I find this is easier for keeping my spreadsheets in check!
There have been a few virtual clunks this week, so I've updated my signature accordingly. I also made some extra small payments that haven't been updated thanks to the sluggish banking system, so my total should be ~£75 come the new year (a.k.a. 25% towards target!) If I keep it up at this rate I may need a higher target0 -

i think im going to reach mine earlier than expected too, but then i might just start again in a diff savings account and save towards something else eg a nice holiday:cool:Proud to be dealing with my debts Nerd #992 LBM 30.06.08 Debt [strike]£3292[/strike] £1646 (50% paid, all interest free) Sealed pot member #434 £65.09 & Virtual sealed pot member #001 £82.07+£33.04+£112.83=£227.94 Gave up smoking 30.01.09 DfDay 01.12.09Have nothing in your homes that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful (sell it instead)
