  • Hi all, we have paid a chunky £227 off today (£150 over payment which I am hoping will be more if we can stick to our revised skinny budget and £77 from selling a gold necklace and bracelet that I had valued a couple of weeks ago and have been thinking about selling them ever since) so we are down to £2608.77 yay!!

    Just popping in to say goodbye - will be away until Monday 18th. Be good all and pay off lots while I'm away! My personal mission is only to spend the money we're taking with us and not to put anything on the credit card... watch this space! USA here we come.
  • Hi All

    Well done on all the OPs so far this month. I am heading off on holiday for the next week or so. I have set aside a budget of £350 for the week including petrol. Even if we keep pretty close to this I will be happy. :j

    Paid 120.00 to Next this morning making my running total:
    2829.42/10,000

    Will be slowing down on payments (except for regular obviously) as we head to Spain on Friday for a week's holiday. As always we will be taking the majority of food with us as we are self catering but will eat out if we are out sightseeing during the day. So looking forward to it after our lovely sunny weekend here:j

    Good luck to everyone else paying off debts.:A
    Payment A Day £15 (started 17/5/14) :j
