Wish I was as positive as you lot, I have paid the rest of my xmas pot into the bank today and bought most of the bits i needed to finish my family probably only need to spend about £10 more. I thought it would top up the amount i was short this month.
I will worry how to pay for DS and DH xmas presents nearer the time.
On Friday I will be £465 short on Lloyds cc I have put £100 into savings just in case and will transfer this once I know how we are coping through the month, if quidco pays out and all my other bits clear that will be another £180. I also think I can sqeeze about £150 out of the bank now maybe a little more. On top of this I will have ebay sales hopefully, so it can be done if the next few days with my parents aren't too expensive.MARCH 2016 DEBT £25750/ £25035

That will be a great saving on the HSBC card then. Fingers crossed the BIN's accept and the money comes rolling in xLBM Aug 09: £18,650.47 - Current: £12,854.93 (£5946.79)

Hi just wanted to pop on and say hi
I've been a member on here for a few years now and have really started debt busting over the last 7 months since OH got a decent paying job but I think your doing great ! I've subscribed to your thread too
Focusing on clearing the credit cards in 2018 :T0 -
Thanks for popping in, not going to be around much for a few days have the folks visiting.
Need a little help, if I clear my Lloyds card next month before the payment due date am i right in thinking I will pay interest on the interest added from the month before until I clear the balance again. Should I wait and make sure I clear any outstanding interest before doing the BT ?
So far I have spent £40 tonight taking the folks out for dinner it was dad's birthday so thought I should pay.MARCH 2016 DEBT £25750/ £25035
