Hi Everybody:hello:
I found a jacket today in Debenhams for £28, so £2 less than my maximum spendage. I have therefore sent £82 overpayment to my credit card
Thanks for all your supportive messages! I really do agonise over every 'frivolous' spending I do since getting back on track :rotfl:
Total payed off of over all debt - £1222. 'Only' £5592 to go

Hey!
Some fabulous tales of debt busting heroes on here now...well done to everyone who has paid off debt :T
I have popped into town to check out the sales on wallpaper - it's funny though - the stuff you like is never the stuff in the sale...:rolleyes: I wonder why that is
I also need a shower (buy a new one - not just take a shower...I do wash!) - it seems never ending. I really want to start paying off more of my debt, but I don't want to electrocute myself with the dodgy shower either!!!
Hope you are all well.MBNA - [STRIKE]£7068.60 [/STRIKE] £7060.00 Egg - 1422.35 A&L - [STRIKE]£249.32[/STRIKE] £215.00Loan - £13279.50 :rolleyes:0 -

Hello all
I have decided to join the challenge if that is ok? I will be 34 in March 2010 and I would love to be out of debt by then
I am 15766 in debt. Hate admitting that even tho its all in my diary!
I should be Avoning and Ebaying to make extra money may also branch out in to the Saucy new job thread been threatening to do that for a while.
I will be more chatty I promise just a bit knackered suddenly!

Well I've been on holiday for a week and it's taken me ages to catch up - you are all doing so well!
I'm in a bit of shock - according to my calculations I've paid £1614 off my debts since we started the challenge! I really can't believe it! I only need £130 to pay the windows off YAY!!! I'll have that on payday which is 2 weeks away - I can't wait to get it paid off. I should be able to clear a chunk off the credit card on payday to. It's so exciting!!!!!
Keep going everyone - thanks for giving me lots of inspiration!!!lightbulb moment Jan 07 - DFW 417!debtwas£32k
