    Wow, well done you for using it to pay off your debts. I will be doing the same when my mum's very generous xmas gift of £500 clears the bank. (Well most of it anyway, as I could do with a new pair of jeans :D)

    Yep, all done towards the loan. Bought myself a cd for £0.96, that's my treat for getting a bonus.

    Hi everyone,
    Can I join? I'd like to aim for £5000, which would see 2 credit cards gone & hp tv paid off! Fingers crossed & best of luck to everyone.

    Hello jwil and everyone else!

    I would love to join this challenge as I am due to go on mat leave in May so need to pay off as much as possible before then. I will aim for £22000 as this is the approximate amount of debt left. I did the pay off £20000 last year and only reached halfway, but every bit extra paid off is a help.

    Good luck everyone.
