Pay off as much as you can in 2011 Challenge!

kavics17

I'm going to see my parents tmrw (abroad) and back on Monday, so won't be able to make an overpayment until than (though we did already well for April). I will let you know than how much we can pay towards Tesco's again. Though I wonder where my salary is, should be in by today...

We're going to have a massive overpayment,just realized, decided to touch the money I have abroad from my rental property (appr. £3k) which I was saving to pay off its initial mortgage. But the mortgage interest on investment property is much less than on Tesco's loan so it's a no brainer...

Morning all

Back to work this morning after nearly 2 weeks off . Anyhow forgot to post my normal payment of 100.00 to cap one which came out while we were on hols. Adding it to my total today makes it:

2997.32/10,000

Wow what a crazy week! having a newborn is chaotic! but the good news is that in April we paid £417.07 off the debts, not bad as we had a £100 car bill and £50 vets too.

May is going to be even better I hope, am going ebay crazy and have already filled the freezer with lots of batch cooking, however its car insurance renewal month and our renewal just came in at over double:eek:

buuuuut......have already found one cheaper than last year amazing as we were kind of banking on it being cheaper, or at least if it had gone up we would have had to think about giving up the car.

So fingers crossed that the car stays in one piece and nothing else pops up and we could be on for a good month.

Hope you all had a brilliant Easter and a got some time off in the lovely sunshine, right I am off to get all the laundry done and on the line before the rain this weekend....

Hi All
I have sent another £40 over to my loan repayment fund.

Hi everyone :wave::wave:

Sorry I have been a bit quiet - trying to get on top of my workload before house move, easter and bank holiday weekend. Contracts arrived yesterday for signature so hopefully exchange will follow shortly.

Well done on all the debt busting - Suzie W - yours stands out in my mind - looks like you are on the home stretch now - what a fab feeling!

Travel safe Kavics and have a good time abroad.

Welcome to the newbies and many thanks again to Jwil for managing this task. It really really helps me knowing I have to come and 'report' back lol.

I keep a spreadsheet and then just give final balance after repayments/ extra payements / minus interest etc. So my balance at the end of April is :

£3,541 / £10,206

I still have the pesky MBNA but it is down to £460 so as soon as settled in new house will be making a concerted effort to get rid of that.

Enjoy the bank holiday weekend everyone :D:D:D
