    Thanks so much for this thread, it's really been a huge help paying off the last CC!!

    Will keep on padding though. It'll be strange putting it in a savings account though! :D

    Congratulations!!! :j:T:beer:

    CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! :beer::beer: Now for the first month of being debt free, treat yourself - don't save it all straightaway :p based on my latest calculations my dfd will be in May - I'm going to see Take That in June so that will be a major blowout weekender before I get back on the wagon!

    Yesterdays total was £515.44. My own pad is the usual £12.70, maybe more later.

    I've just worked out that I have not spend anything all this week - despite the fact I went into town this morning. And I went in to return something, so I have actually gained money haha (But I still need a dress for the xmas party...)

    Have a good saturday all - I have plans to make Lemon Drizzle Cake and mince pies but that depends on motivation levels!
