It worked !!! that's me washing away all my debts! Right down to business- hiya to all the new peeps -the more the merrier I say! This weekend was spent trying to buy a new fridge (the old one just coughed and gave up on friday night:eek:) So off we trot - hubby and I and as a treat I gave him some money for the car apparently it needs something called diesel!!! However, as we left the garage the car just stopped and conked out
I could not believe it!!! no fridge and no car - The car is now working thanks to a very nice garage who accepted a big box of biccies to say thanks for fixing it:T
So when life gets you down remember smile :rotfl:andget back on track with the DFB's :cool:- end of the month soon ooooh just got a chq for £4.83 in the post !!!

Ooooh, that would be really good. A nice chunk off... have you got anything you can use? It would be a shame to miss the F&F deadline.

Good luck!

Thanks Laura, I have just over £150 put by and a bonus of £150ish from my main job due in a couple of weeks, the rest I am hoping to pay through my second job, only normally do Sundays but they will luckily let me do Saturdays as well, plus the 2 Bank Holidays this month (though only get paid for one in time). Will be a tiring month but definitely worth it to be able to cross it off the list! Excited about it already

I've never been so excited about paying debts before :rotfl:

Hi everyone

I hope you are all well.

My DMP statement is through so that's another £813 off my debt. Plus I have paid just over £10 off the Barclaycard as extra. I had to do a new ticker as couldn't work out how to alter it:





Hopefully this will work!!

Hi all!

Hope you are all well.

It seems like you are all doing really well. It's very inspiring seeing how well you are doing. I haven't done as well as I had hoped last month but hopefully things will improve this month (although I do have to buy a new shower and have it installed!!!:mad:).

Emily - your ticker is looking very good...keep up the hard work!:T
kashton - well done on clearing that debt!:T

Okey dokey! Off to do my dishes...I live on my own, but I think they breed:eek:

Keep up the hard work folks! x

Well done Kashton for clearing a debt.

£7.53 off mine today as a DD left the bank account. So now paid of £85.53 in total since 18th April - not bad.




Now need to start thinking of some ways to keep this going May start some serious ebaying as partner will be moving in soon and I need to make some room in the cupboards for his stuff - not sure I actually need 85 pairs of shoes and yet I can't seem to bring myself to sell them either lol.

Current credit card debt (ignoring savings for now altho if get a job soon may use towards debt repayments) is £15626.69! Over the next few days will be paying a further £205 which will leave £15421.69.
