Thats it I'm kicking off!!!!!
But really, I don't mind that you are ahead of me now, as I know that I still have my little stash to pay off as soon as my Student loan payment comes in. I will of course amend my sig in your favour (again), but don't get too complacent, I am hot on your heals!Debt £5600 all 0%0 -

...Linda xxIt's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.0 -
Thank you I needed that!Debt £5600 all 0%0

Hmm, having written out my spending for the next 6 months roughly in my diary, my current accounts fluctuate but remain roughly the same over the long term, so I am not going to deduct the sums from my debt when my student loan goes in. These accounts are interest free anyway and perhaps over the summer I can re-assess this.
I recon to half your current lead (hopefully) in about 2 weeks, and if all goes well be kicking your backside by March!Debt £5600 all 0%0 -
I just did the same thing i'm just hoping my bills don't go up any more than i estimate this year or i'm in trouble and you will be kicking my backside in March *LOL*TOTAL: (1.9.2008) £[strike]20,971.00[/strike] (02.12.10)£11,006.07£9,262.93 Paid off (Since LBM)Debt Free Date [strike]2021[/strike] 2015Savings £100 Dec NSD 11/20, Sealed pot challenger 1043:xmassign:0

If either of you buy things online it's worth joining quidco for cash back from certain sites. Have you signed up with YouGov - it's only about £50 a year but better than nothing xx0

Hey DTDT, I may look into the scrathcards after my exam on the 5th (eek!), thank mudbath but I tried YouGov before and found that I wasn't getting credited for my surveys which really put me off. I am already a quidco hussy but don't really buy much online anymore, I made a fair amount matched betting a year or so ago using the site.
I still recon to half DTDT's lead next week!Debt £5600 all 0%0
