Another £52 to the loan this morning which takes me under £6k owed to the bank - woopwoop!
We've been having a very frugal month and I'm on course to PAD £500 over my usual amount this month. Also starting saving for a minibreak in July for something to look forward to.
Haven't done the trade in box or any eBaying but I'm feeling quite motivated to have a rummage around tonight.Total Debt Sept 2010 - £24,132.38 / Current - £0.00/ 100% paid

Sorry you've not been feeling too good.
Where's the mini break going to be to?

Not sure, somewhere we can drive to in 4 hours or less. Doesn't really matter as long as it's a nice hotel and we can get some Champagne on ice!
I'm also saving to have my watch serviced. It's a designer watch I've had for 10 years and I feel so extravagant paying for a "service" but it's one of my treasured possessions and I'd be heartbroken if it stopped working so I need to man up and pay the £300 :OTotal Debt Sept 2010 - £24,132.38 / Current - £0.00/ 100% paid

It doesn't have a battery and whilst I'm not 100% sure the whole "servicing" thing isn't a con, it isn't winding properly. Because of the make no jeweller/watch repairman will look at it for me and so I have to send it off for treatment :rotfl:Total Debt Sept 2010 - £24,132.38 / Current - £0.00/ 100% paid

Under £7k and up to 71% this morning!
Payday today. Paid off an awesome £1600 last month! It wasn't too difficult but I'm going back to the usual £1100 payment this month so that we can have some fun over the Easter holidays. We deserve it.
I've put aside some £ for some new summer clothes and a couple of nights out
