Thanks for the updates everyone.

I've paid £324 towards my loan today, which takes me to £5944. Got to see if I can smash £6k this month. Should be able to as I still have one CC to pay.

Good to see you again Tina, I've added some to my cards as well. I just don't count those payments until the balance is back to where it was before. Getting back on the wagon is the most important thing!

Well done on the ebay sales! :T

Thanks. Have been taking advantage of the free listings days. Got another seven things on there at the mo. Actually made £150 last week, but we spent £100 on half term bits and pieces.

Excitingly my DS has just learnt to ride his bike and is utterly in love with the whole idea of bike rides, which means lots of cheap family outings coming up! And lots of exercise for us. All good for the wallet and the waistline.

Make the most of that sarahs999! Bike rides are a great day out - we went on a picnic/bike ride on saturday, 30 mile round trip, lovely countryside, and cost us about £5 of food/drink! Plus the trip computer thingy reckons we burned 1250 calories, can't be bad!

Another great total for May everyone. :T

Don't think I'll be making any more payments until payday on the 25th. thanks to overstretching myself on the payday just gone, I'm living on £170 for the next 3 weeks, which would be doable if I didn't have 3 trips to london and a ball to go to! :eek: God knows how I'm going to manage it.

Hellooo, I'm going to be a bit lower on the payments this next couple of months, as I have a lot of expenses coming out. I am planning to dig out a few old credit card statements, bills, bank statements etc. so I can put them in a book or a folder to refer back to when I am debt free to help me stop making the same mistakes.
