well done shy you're doing a fab job of keeping on top of everything! What a great feeling it must be to realise you can be debt free by this summer!! :j
I can't wait until i get to that stage lol! Don't feel guilty about buying the new shoes! You needed them for work so are an investment rather than money being wasted

Thanks for popping in DFW. Its an amazing feeling knowing i will be debt free soon. I have confirmed with my bank loan that i can overpay and it reduces the term so once everything else is gone i will be tackling that. Feel like time is dragging at the moment as im just waiting to get my bonus so i can hand my notice in. I just want to get moved now.

I know what you mean DFW im literally counting the sleeps. Only 15 now and i get my bonus. Yehaaaa im so excited by it. Ive got money to get me by until then so im not overly stressed about it im just so excited that a massive chunk of the debt will be gone in 2 weeks. Ah i love getting paid the 25th of each month. Not sure what the pay day will be in my new job but it will kill me if i have to wait until the very end of the month eeeek lol.

So it is now only 9 sleeps untill i get my bonus and wipe out a massive chunk of the debt!! I am so excited. Also move out of my house next week so packing stuff up and keeping myself busy. Seem to have gone abit crazy this month knowing my bonus is coming and have taken my eye off the ball slightly which means im overdrawn to the fine tune of £70 should get some expenses end of the week to take that down abit. I got my hair done which really was an extravagance but i couldnt help it. Hope everyone is getting there with the debtbusting shy xLBM 11/10
