  • Hi All

    Well done for all payments in July.

    Have paid off £29.01 today, which was £10 left over in change from last month, some from Quidco and some from mystery shopping. I have also upped my target due to now having more on my cc :o, please can I change my total so far and target to £2253.41/£6500.00 please Jwil. Might end up being a little more than this due to balance transfers but will put it down for £6500 as I won't know for definite till my new 0% cc comes in. Only £4000ish left to find in 5 months!:eek::rotfl:

    Dreaming is a pointless exercise if it only serves to reinforce your own limitations.
    For my familys sake I no longer dream, I will plan and I will try and if I fail I will try and try again.
    Failing is far better than dreaming. :)

    Another little OP for me of £13.41.
    This is a combination of Quidco and PAW. I am paying my PAW a day early as I get paid on Friday and wanted to pay it out of this month's money (if you see what I mean).
    My Next bill is due on MOnday and I am hoping to be able to ring them up and pay it off in full and then CLOSE the account.
    (Do you think if I 'say' CLOSE in capitals a lot, it will make me listen to myself and not keep it open 'just in case':rotfl:)

    Running total £1905.98/£6000
    Pay as much as you can in 2011- £3688.54/£6000
    Pay as much as you can in 2012 - £3190.96/£6000
