in Debt-free wannabe
I just wanted to say a massive thank you to everyone (Ms_London and Rochdaleboi in particular) for all your support/inspiration and help.

I will be 26 in June, and it feels great to have no debts whatsoever, its been a hard four years of no social life and no big purchases! and I am glad I have finally made it.

Good Luck to everyone and I hope you all get to post something like me one day.....thanks again.

Time to start saving for my own place and move out of my parents!

    Three cheers for Omar! Well done! Make sure you don't go mad and slip into debt again (apart from a mortgage, which is allowed!)
