A Payment a Day Part 3

Emily Hallett started a fantastic thread called 'a payment a day' which you can find here:
Thread 1
:T The thread was a huge success and was continued in 'A Payment a Day Part 2'. That thread can be found here:
Thread 2
:T The thread is extremely supportive and friendly, with lots of madness and smileys to boot! It is ever increasing, which is why part 3 has now been started.
The principle of the idea is that you pay any extra money you have against a debt to clear it a little bit quicker. Not everyone makes a daily payment, but instead they save money to make a lump sum at the end of the month. You can do it anyway you want to, but join the thread and let us know how you are getting on.
Some PaD-ers have cleared their debts and are now focusing on saving following the same principal, so they still post on the thread.
Anyone is welcome to join in at anytime.
Best wishes to everyone :beer:
To show how well we all do, the collective amount paid to each debt, per month, will be logged here. Look how amazing the totals are
January £31,633.52
February £27,954.19
March £38,976.80
April £34,235.12
May £35,660.62

Another new thread!! Must be all the talking on the sunday night soiree!!
Twinkles - you are exactly right, when we originally applied for housing benefit we gave them all the forms, documents etc they asked for, it took them nearly three months to come to a decision!! Now they have written to us giving us three weeks to return the overpaid money!!! In their dreamsBiggest Loser Weight Loss: 13 / 20 lb0
