Hi skintchick - CONGRATULATIONS!! :j :beer: :T
I only just saw this thread so sorry for not posting sooner!! As someone who's been on these boards for a couple of years, it's great to see a fellow DFW now only months away from that final goal that we've all been (and still are) working so hard towards. :T
Success stories like this are very encouraging for newbies and show us all that there is a light at the end of the tunnel, no matter how long it may take! Well done you - it can be a hard slog (budgeting and going without) as you know, but YOU DID IT!!!
There's a lot of satisfaction to be had from that and you should be very proud of yourself!!
Roll on February, eh!!

Hey I'm really pleased for you!! The penny really dropped for OH when he received the offer and realised he didn't need to use it! It's a brilliant feeling, especially when your brain is all geared up to looking for the next 0% card to move to, and suddenly one lands in your lap and you can turn round and decline it!!!
Well done you - big big claps - 4months to complete debt freeness is brilliant well done, I'm really excited for you!!!
Ok I'll post the message not just sit here grinning like an idiot!!0 -

Its good to hear that all is going well and that you are soo close to your goal, especially with all the ups and downs of the past year.
Pleased for you.0
