I'm nearly there....

Received our endowment compensation this morning, have put £1000 in my ISA, Clearing my Amex as soon as the bill comes, and paid £100 off Natwest.( It's 0% so there's no rush to clear that)
It finally feels like I'm almost there, after 2 years of constantly having credit card bills to pay.I know I've still got an overdraft but that's getting lower and lower thanks to Quidco and budgeting.I have just changed my account to A and L so I will get £90 for that thanks to a referral, which will take it down even more, so I really feel like it will all be gone by Christmas...
It feels so good.I'd already started to do something about it before I discovered MSE, but being here has got me claiming my endowment back successfully, finding quidco, finding survey sites to help with christmas pressies etc, freebies including razors, shampoo, cinema tickets, and a great bunch of people!
