Just thought I would start a fun little thread to write down the debt free things we have done today (and before today) to help us along our debt free journey and keep us motivated, so far this month I have :
1. Sold my expensive car and got a much more economical cheaper one, ridding me of £1500 straight away and getting rid of my finance!
2. Set up my virgin pension, my house deposit savings and my emergency fund payments all at £50 a month, so I have saved £150 already!
3. Knocked my phone bill down from a monthly £50 to a monthly £25
4. Paid my £1000 credit card down to £500 , half way there! Nearly one card down, 2 to go!
5. Commited to taking pack lunches into work every day saving me around £25 per month
6. Started paying back my boyfriend the money I owe him
Today I have :
1. Listed some items on ebay, 3 of which already have bids and the money will go towards my credit card payments.
2. Applied for a temp waitressing job for a week, should finish paying off my first credit card
:money:
