    Another £30 for the fund. I'm actually saving the money to pay off debt in one go. Its interest free now, pay back 75% of the total, makes more sense to do it that way.

    You sort your debts into APR order...pay off the highest first, then put the money you would have paid onto the next debt...etc etc
