    But we will get there :grin:

    Hi, beanielou

    I am glad I am not the only one lol. I manage to do a month really well and then fall completely of the wagon or like this month have 3 huge bills which means very few additional payments. Though I think I had my lightbulb moment last night when one of my friends asked me why I was not going out as much and I explained my lovely debts and when she asked me how, I realised it was wanting to live way above my means and going out and having to much fun.
    But it's challenges like this that have kicked me of the mark and made me pull on the brakes on my spending and clothes shopping and reading about everyone else on this challenge and how even 1p makes a difference.

    Fingers crossed we will get even a small amount cleared before crimbo

    good luck
