Wow! :dance: I'm ridiculously proud of myself.
Another big payment coming up - Friday is OH's payday! It should mean a CC paid off and put to rest! It will take time though as I have to transfer it to the US.Paying things off is getting addictive!

Hello Dragon,
Have finally been paid and direct debits have gone out.
I have paid off £804.90 from my debt!!
Again many thanks for your efforts Dragon and keep up the good work everyone.0 -
Just wanted to add that its been a terrible month for me, had a weekend break in Germany and bought a PS3 (so that I spend more time at home and not out spending money!)
Am hoping to make a greater payment next month, wish me luck and can I say its great to read about everyone's paybacks! Keep it up0 -
I looked at my snowball (again:o) and decided it would be nice to round the figures down to the nearest £5 – just to make things easy. So I made several online transfers from my bank account and that resulted in an extra £33 off my debt today. I’ve decided that whenever I make payments I will always pay the odd pounds/pence to make sure I leave a nice round balance down to the nearest £5. It makes counting the debt balance easier and it leaves me with a nice feeling that those little extra bits are making a difference. Unfortunately I can’t round the whole debt as I can’t make extra payments to the Northern Rock loan – hey ho, there’s always something to thwart me;)
So Dragon, can you mark me with a further £33 off my total please:jNR [STRIKE]£5542[/STRIKE]£2771 BC [STRIKE]£7987[/STRIKE]£7700 BC [STRIKE]£3000[/STRIKE]£5100 Cat1 Pd Cat2 Pd Ulstr [STRIKE]£3400[/STRIKE]£3070 TSB [STRIKE]£4851[/STRIKE]£4400 MBNA [STRIKE]£7700[/STRIKE]£3887 NWst [STRIKE]£950[/STRIKE] £700 Hfx [STRIKE]£10097[/STRIKE]£10050 Asda [STRIKE]£398[/STRIKE] £315 HFX1 Pd Hfx2 [STRIKE]£3133[/STRIKE] £3000
