    I've checked 3 times now and I'm right!

    I have conservatively estimated bonuses etc and that figure is still based on current interest levels. I have not factored in nights out or mini breaks though as I don't have anything planned yet (those I know about are already in the budget).

    Fingers crossed there isn't an issue with my car to wreck my budget!

    This new shortage seems far more achievable :)

    That's fantastic. How do you calculate your spreadsheet woo - I'm very good with Excel (it's the main thing I use for my job) but I don't know what you put in to do your calculations

    I use Excel as well Kat, I have the debt amount for each card listed for the next 13 months showing what it will be after that months payment, after interest has been applied. So it shows worse case scenario.

    Kind of hard to explain sorry, does that make sense! I could always email my spreadsheet if you wanted to see x

    Would you mind emailing me your template Woowoo? I am not sure my spreadsheet is really comprehensive enough...
