    Hi everyone!

    Wow, you've all been really busy while I've been away. Well done on all the payments, we're doing really well! :j

    Welcome to all of the newcomers, you should all be added to the first page now. Please shout if I've missed you, it's not intentional :o

    The first page should be up to date now with payments, and updated targets. If you could just check your figures are ok, I'd be most grateful :)

    For those who are yet to get started as you get paid in the middle of the month - just remember that you'll be making loads of payments then, while us who get paid at the start/end of the month will be twiddling our thumbs waiting for the money to come in again! :rotfl:

    So, does anyone have any plans for moneyraising in January? I've got to get some more stuff listed on ebay. That will be my main challenge I think.

    Well, made my first payment of 2011 today. My mortgage has just gone down by about £100 per month, car loan (to parents) finished and got some nice mileage allowance back this month. So first payment towards Virgin CC paid :j

    £510/£10,000

    Loans and Santander payments don't come out until a bit later in the month, so will wait before adding them - but they will just be minimum payments. Hope to raise another £250 this month on top of regular payments...just need to work out how!! Amazon, eBay, need some more ideas too.

    Can i join please, I have a few debts lurking which, combined with OH's add up to £8000!!! This will be my aim please. I haven't taken interest into account as I can't work it out at all, but am aiming for the 8K then I have a figure to work towards. Some of my DD's are still coming out (with bank holidays etc) so will post later in the week how much I have paid so far!!

    Thanks
