Well my wage is pending going into my bank account, and my payments are pending coming out so by the time I wake up in the morning I will have got rid of another £300 of debt
£735/£3435
Still on target for getting it all paid off by the end of the year, but I want to be able to add a bit extra this month - Jan & Feb have both been VERY tight months, fingers crossed March will be better
Have made myself a budget for the month that gives me "pocket money" per week - if I can stick to that I can pay off another pretty big chunk at the end of the month - wish me luck!!0 -

Hi,
I'm new and would like to join if it is ok - it will help motivate me, especially during the more challenging months.
I would like to clear £10000 this year - a nice round figure.
Thanks

Hi everyone
It's payday today and I've been as frugal as possible which has paid off! I have £1k left before being paid but OH is on half pay till April so I have kept £500 and paid £500 off the Bank of Scotland CC. I'm hoping to do the same every month now, if I can do it with the OH on half pay I can certainly do it after that! I may have to increase my total amount if things keep going this well, I was originally aiming to just clear one credit card this year but looks like more may be possible.
£750/£2,400Bank of Scotland CC: £2209.22/£2400.
