Hi everyone! I'm so excited as I've just paid 110 pounds into Nationwide bringing the balance into the black and no overdraft - yayyyyy! Tried to close the account but was told I had to wait a couple of days - so will go back in the week and close it down! Xxx

well done
its so nice to get things paid off Drop a brand challenge
on a £100 shop you might on average get 70 items save
10p per product = £7 a week ~ £28 a month
20p per product = £14 a week ~ £56 a month
30p per product = £21 a week ~ £84 a month (or in other words one weeks shoping at the new price)0 -
That is brilliant- well done! Enjoy every moment of closing it down.0

Well done - but if you've only just come out of overdraft, if it was me I'd wait a month or so before closing it down, to make sure you are completely straight with any interest charges etc.0

Well done. There's nothing like that feeling when you tell yourself 'Ha! That's another one gone!'2026's challenges: 1) To rebuild our Emergency Fund to at least £5k.
2) To read 50 books (12/50) 3) The Re-Shrinking of Foxgloves 8.1kg/30kg
Remember....if you have to put it on a credit card, extend your overdraft or take out a loan to buy whatever it is, you probably can't afford it, as that's not your money, it's somebody else's!0 -
