Hi All

Another big chunk gone, so total paid off now at £7500, only £800 on one credit card to go and the remainder of a loan, so it should be gone in six months or so!

Hi Skaps and all our fellow runners,

Just popping in to report that my debt has actually increased this month - doh! I'd kind of expected it though. My total paid off is now £2528.92 (15.8%) - I'm number 40 on the list. My snowball DFD is currently March 2013, hope someone will be waiting with the oranges when I do finally get to the finish line! Can't wait until January when I can get back to overpaying everthing.

Well done to Purpleroses, Missmental and Natsing (and anyone else I've missed!) - you're all doing really well. I'll be at the back chasing up anyone flagging!

For anyone who hasn't read back a few pages, Dragon is taking a rest from the challenge, so Skaps is kindly updating the list - please go to post 1128

A good heads up Katenut, I noticed some people hadn't realised Skaps had taken over for a while.

Thank you Skaps.

Mine is November 2013 so I will need someone to be waiting for me. I need to overpay by £500 each month to reach the Olympic date. Atm thats not affordable so will have to wait and see.

Well done everyone on reducing your debts esp with xmas coming! If anyone has some great tips for xmas spending please post them.

How does it feel to be debt free? Any pearls of wisdom for those of us lagging behind?! Hope you've added your name to the debt-free roll of honour!! xx

Purpleroses

Thanks Kate. It feels really strange. I've checked my online banking about 6 times to check i'm not imagining it!

I did indeed sign the debt free roll of honour. Never thought i'd sign it.

No pearls of wisdom lol! Just keep going and posting on here and you'll get there one day too

skaps

Well done Purpleroses you are the first one to reach the finishing line. :j
