    Hi everyone :D

    I have updated my signature and I now owe my boyfriend £1,500 which I would like to pay off ASAP.

    I am going to try and clear most of this with AQA (I WILL find the time to do this!!). Although I'm not around this weekend so won't be able to do anything then :rolleyes:

    I'm going to update my total daily so it keeps me more motivated.

    How is everyone else doing?

    Proud to be dealing with my debt.
  • My Husband's bonus finally came through, so as of today I no longer have a credit card debt. :T :j

    For probably the first time since I was 18 I do not owe any money on a CC and certainly for the first time ever I have paid off a balance without BT, getting a loan, etc. I am so happy!!

    Thank you Emily for starting this. X-X-X

    Just the little matter of the loans now, starting with Sainsbury because this has the highest interest rate at 7.5%.
    Total Debt November 2016 =£9,660.52 :mad:

    Monthly Repayments = £593.09 :eek:

    Goal to be debt free December 2017/ Savings £500 :T

    That's fantastic never_again, well done! It's a great feeling isn't it. I've still got £3837.86 to pay off from the work that we needed to have done on the house. Saying that, we've managed to pay of just over a thousand pounds in 6 weeks so i'm hopeful we might be debt free before christmas 2007. Your signature looks great with all those debts crossed out. Well done again.
