    Hi all

    just a quick update paid off £357 for rent arrears and £571.01 off overdraft having been trying to spend less so I could blitz these and have managed to smash my target paid off £1072.53/£500. So pleased hoping to get rid of more before 100 days up good luck to all.

    WOW Thats AMAZING!!! Well Done!!! :beer:

    Hi, i dont think Rictus meant anything by asking what the most that had been paid off was.. its just curiosity :-) We are all doing great. And yep it dont matter what we pay as long as we try our best to pay something. x

    Sorry :(! I didnt want others to feel bad!

    £2 for me today, £324/£780 now so quite pleased with that.

    I've just been having a think about rejigging some savings that I have as the interest is nothing when compared to the interest on my credit card. Would have to lose my little pot but think it would be better used to pay off debt at the moment. It will also give me a little chunk to pay off towards this challenge. Hmmm...

    I know what you mean P-Purple - I have some savings and I know Martin says the interest on the cards is way more than the pittance we're getting on savings right now but if anything goes wrong with the car I feel better having the savings or else I'd have to use one of my cards and that's what I'm trying to avoid :eek:

    so today i have paid £44.00 off Barclaycard and £60 off abbey so i'm now £493.55/£1200 and £706.45 to go!

    So now my main aim is to get my Barclaycard down below £3000 before i get made redundant so the money i know i'm def getting will at least cover that! fingers crossed but is looking do-able so far!

    Good luck and well done everyone! :T
