    Hi all!

    Sorry I've been MIA but we've been enjoying our first holiday in 3+ years! It was fabulous. Now I have post-holiday blues!

    The great, wonderful, MARVELLOUS news is that as of the 3rd (when we got back and I could make the final payment) I am DEBT FREE! :j

    For the purposes of this challenge I am now £8283/£8283. God that feels good to write!

    Well done everyone for the totals and August's sum. Keep on plugging at it. Massive thanks to you all for helping me get here!

    Wow, well done, that's fantastic! :T:T:T:T:T:T:T

    Quick update

    172. Laze - £1645.70/£5817.70

    Owed now:

    Card 1: £0
    Card 2: £0
    Card 3: £250 - to be paid off by End of October 2011
    Card 4: £1550 - to be paid off by End of January 2012
    Card 5: £2372 - to be paid off by End of April 2012

    Also, worked out with the £4172 now owed, and my NEED to pay it off by April next year, that's £596 per month that must go to paying these cards (in order of deal ending of course - i.e. Card 3 is next as it ends in November!) With £350 on my car too, that's almost £1,000 on debt I'm trying to pay. It's nigh on impossible with living costs, food, petrol and other niggles, but I'm working hard to do it. eBay more stuff and hope for a decent up and coming bonus before xmas.
