    Ok so I have done something I should have done ages ago.

    I have set up a basic savings account with my online banking where ALL my debt it (it's all managed to a T so no problems with them whipping away any credit.. and if they do they will get the money I will be paying them anyway) but having it is a great incentive - now whenever I have a little bit more than I need I can pop it into the savings account... when it gets to £500 I will put it into my overdraft (my biggest interest rate) and bring the overdraft down. This weekend I will be applying for a VERY basic bank account with the coop just so I have money elsewhere but it's nice to have the visual money pot that I can see growing in a positive sense! Also all my ebay pennies will now be paid into the savings account so I'm not tempted to spend it :)

    So on that note I wish to pledge £7.76 (should be an extra tenner by tonight ;)) which leaves the grand total of £202.96 to pay - yay!

    Best make that £12.76 just added another £5 to the pot as it wouldn't let me take the last tenner out of my account - yet if I took it out in cash it'll be fine... weird... xxx

    Hi guys, everyone is doing so well with this challenge, all your efforts and your posts on here of your progress is so motivating.:T
    Pay day today, so I have paid the last £240 to pay off my smaller catologue debt. This has put a serious whole in my wages but it is worth it. I am so pleased this debt is paid as they were going to charge me over £200 interest if it wasn't paid in full by August!:j
    Cant believe how good it feels to see the back of just one debt!
    I have paid another £40 of my last remaining provi loan, so I still have £160 to find to pay this off before theend of the challange.

    £2139/£2299. Getting there......:rotfl:

    Keep up all your good work guys, NEARLY THERE xxx:o
