Debt Free Day

Hey Everyone
Just thought i'd let you know that Debt Free Day has arrived, I paid off fully what was owing on my credit card at dinner time. Wonder if I could get my name changed to DebtFreeDavey :) Its such a nice feeling to know i now owe nothing at all.

    What brilliant news Davey!! :j :T :j :T :j
    It's what we are all waiting for so make sure you enjoy it to the full.

    I expect you'll want to frame the credit card bill that says '£0.00' when it arrives. My DFD is quite a way away yet but I'm sure the feeling will be amazing. Well done!!!!! :beer:
