Hi Red

Never got back to you on the smoking thing, I'm an ex smoker tried everything smoked 20 a day for years then one day i thought no more wasting money no more smelly clothes no more standing out in the cold.That was it not smoked since, all I can say is if you enjoy it and dont feel ready to give up dont even bother trying it wont work.
But if your ready you go for it and I will be here to encourage you all the way :T:T:T:T:T
I wish DH would give up but even im not the brave to question that one and the more I nag the more he smokes.
Quite a productive walk today nice to get out in the sun.

Hows ebay ?

:jFantastic on the ebay sales £104.43 is that going to your buddy richard he will be crying at the lost interest.
Now then you snubbing my challenge im trying really hard to find another one.:cool:
This time next week when your counting your pennies you will be so happy and nearer 48k and paying less interest.
Have you done your snowball yet my challenge to myself is to beat my DFD and you can appreciat how hard that will be for me with my DH.
This weeks mantra is NO NO NO NO

Hey lady! Don't beat yourself up, you're doing brilliantly in the face of adversity!

I think everyone approaches debt repayment differently. I have a set figure set aside every month and whatever I have left after the minimum has been paid I tend to put it to the highest paying card or the one that has least time left on a deal. I know others try to pay one debt off at a time but given the magnitude of my debt it's not really an option for me!

Have you looked at the snowball calculator and had a play around with it, it's worth it www.whatsthecost.com just to see the difference a few pounds make.

The good thing is you ARE doing something, you're not burying head in sand so however you approach cannot be the wrong way.

As for OH, I share your despair, it has taken me YEARS to get OH in the position he is now - my foot firmly on his head - but I am keeping everything crossed he stays like this. He has a vision of debt free life in 9 years and is focused on that date or I will put both feet on his head!

Keep going, you're doing brilliantly!
