    Interesting....

    I've just had a play with the spreadsheet and removed everyone who signed up and then never came back - so those who never updated, and those who only had one update - the one given when they signed up.

    With those people taken out of the sheet, our new target would be £663,921.17 and of that we have paid off: £479,996.97 which is 72%
    That is fantastic, so well done everyone, and thank you to everyone who took part and updated more than once! :T:T:T:T:T:T

  • Quick pre-pay day update from me :)

    £3190/£3435

    How much do I regret spending the extra money earlier this year?!? Anyway, nearly done for this year's challenge, will be getting paid on Friday and sending at least £245 to my CC so I can say it's done!

    That's awful! I can't believe they are paying you a week later and not giving you any notice!

    I don't get paid until 30th but that's always the case, they've never bought it forward for Xmas, so I'm used to it.

    Thanks Jwil. Well I guess looking on the brightside of things my January is a week less long until payday. If we'd have known it would have been far easier but its made me even more careful and I've not spent on little things that I would have normally brought this week:)
    Debt free and busy treating myself:)

    No more toiletries/make up until I've used what I've got stashed since Jan 2011, graduated October 2012. Restocked Dec 13..damn those sales
