    Wow, THanks for my update Dragon, I can't believe I have paid off over 15% of my total alrready. Me and OH have a serious 6 month plan now she is back at work and aim to use all spare cash to pay off debts.

    Long term aim is a that detached house with a nice garden for the kid(s)
    Here is hioping!
    Saying that this thread is such good inspiration and it is great to see so many people doing so well. Every penny counts in the end!

    £1519 on another credit card.:)

  • Well Done Michelle that's wonderful :beer:

    This year has been a real rollercoaster with debt going up not down due to various non avoidable circumstances hence why I have not been posting here but thanks to my OH selling his car yesterday we have been able to make a substantial payment off our debts so our total payment to date on this challenge is £16223.49 :D number 127 leaving us a balance to pay of £15,776.51 I have no idea how the rest of the challenge is going to go every time I make a plan something scuppers it so I am just going to keep chipping away and hope for the best
