Thanks for all the updates everyone. Great stuff!
Not sure how I will reach my target this year now my DH is on SSP for the time being. I'm still going to give it a darned good shot though!
Hope everyone is well and had a good weekend."Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0 -
I had a very exciting email from the national lottery this morning, telling me to check my ticket :j:j
I won...... £2.50 woo hoo!:D
So, in the interests of debt repayment and whole figures, I am going to transfer £3 to my credit card. :A"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0 -
Actually, to round up my total paid off so far to £3800, I'm going to make that a £6 payment
£10,200 to go :eek:"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0 -

Another little payment of £10 today, taking me to £665/£6000 paid. my debts are on my mind a lot today- really want to pay as much as I can off this month, but am in danger of overdoing it and not having enough money to last the monthSave £12k in 2021: Jan £1834.40, Feb £1692.810

Hi all - Jwil sorry again to hear about your hubby being off work at the mo. Hope he feels loads better soon ((hugs))
Think I got a bit carried away - forgot about my mid-month DD's and paid some extra off my debt :eek:
£1889.08/£10,000
As long as I keep my p/t work up, and that the ebay buyers pay up fast should be okAlthough OH has just suggested a night out this week which i really cannot afford

Sold a few items on ebay this weekend, so that's another £26 overpayment made.
£301.08/£4000
I'm beginning to wonder if £4000 was a tad ambitious, but the first quarter of the year is always hardest for us with car tax and insurances to be paid, so I'll stick with it and hopefully get there in the end.0 -
Keep going Walnut. Every payment helps and you never know what you might be able to manage in the coming months.0
