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

Number 37 reporting in.

We have decided not to go abroad on holiday this year and we are going to use our annual leave to visit family and friends in the UK. So I have taken the holiday savings out and added it to the normal planned payments and have reduced the debt by £3,700 this month, bringing the total paid off in 2011to £6850.

(sarahs999/jwil- hope this helps with the feb overall total!!!)


37. My life - £6,850/£24,000

Can I join in? I'm going to start with one debt, clear that and then start another. That way, i won't scare myself too much!
So can I put down £505 - this is debt number one - JD wills.
Thank you:j

YAY payday! Loan payment out, £295 but £50 of it interest - capital debt repaid (not incl. interest) now stands at £3306/£8283 :j

I'll make an overpayment of £400 once all the bills etc are out, hopefully on the 3rd/4th. My total debt is now £4977 and I am SO excited to be under the £5k mark!! :D:D:D:D It really feels like the home stretch for me now!

Pay day was the 15th on emergency call and was called out so an extra £500 this month :-) plus no smoking for nearly 4 weeks now so thats another £165 saved.

Next week i am thinking of cycling to work which will save £22.80 in fares per week plus help lose a bit of fat LOL

Today i decided to pay £1000 off my total and hope i survive until payday on the 15 March 2011 that way i cant spend it ;-) and it brings my figure down that it actually looks do- able to clear this year hip hip hooray! !

Bringing my total to 5842.14 paid will update my signture now


£5842.14/£15,492.37 = £9,650.23

Thanks

think i may have been over ambitious in paying of £500 as soon as i got paid. i dont get paid again until the 18th March and i have barely any money left!!!! oh dear.

i have about £30 in my account which needs to stay there for dd's. i will have £30 in on monday for child benefit and thats really it. so i need to make £30 last a fair while or use my credit card. i so do not want to do that. wish me luck xx
