Hi everyone.
No new payments for me, but £71.99 interest added on :mad:.
Dragon, is there a way you can amend my % paid? Next month I'll wait until the interest has been added before I update my total paid.
Oh for the simple life - go to work, wages come in, bills go out, spend rest of money

lol @ stacy. That's great and very exciting for you.:T
I have just done a new snowball and could just cry. I balance transferred £1k today to l.o.b of 6.9% so have saved some money.:D Have paid loads this month but because of interest and I had to use 1 of my cards as was mega skint and it's the law to feed my children, I have only paid off £5.55 in total. I am going to update at the end of each month so I know the interest situation etc and get a proper total. Love to you all xx

Hi gone a bit mad and paid £250:eek: to my cc with paying off one loan early and no council tax i thought i would be good and put to my debts instead of leaving it in my account to do nothing but now scared and wondering if i should have done that (i know i should but have been down to my last £1 in the world and always worried now that i might not have enough) but how else will i pay off my debts if i dont put money to them?0

I did that last month too - I saved too much and then was really stressed about payments going out later on in the month. Have been more careful this month and am going to put away the 'extra' after all the dds have gone out and im nearer to pay day.
I am not going to be able to make many payments apart from dds till after i've saved my target of £5500 for my wedding. So i wont be helping the overall percentage much - sorry everyone.MFW 2016 No 68 £1300/£8500 No new toiletries Cook sth different0 -
