How Much Additional Debt Have You Accrued.....
Comments

Nothing
I am so pleased that this is the first Christmas for a long time that I haven't added anything to my debts. I used a credit card as I did a lot of online shopping but December's statement was paid in full and the money for January's is in a savings account.
I've kept a note of the ways I achieved this to inspire me for next Christmas when I hope to spend even less actual cash.0 -
140 quid! :mad: At least half of that amount is OH's which he is going to pay for. It has accrued on an old high interest credit card - I had already balance transferred everything off it and meant to close that account, but forgot and there was still a dd set up to take 30 a month (sorry pound sign key not working!) Haven't got enough in the budget to get it cleared at the moment, but it should be gone in the next 3 months, and then that card will definitely be closed and cut into the tiniest pieces imaginable!!0

During the year I had to take out an additional £1000 loan for a new car, but my nett debt this year is £3500 less than it was at the start of the year. (As reported in the other thread).
So I guess that's another £0 from me, right?DFW Nerd 0350 -
extra £250 from littlewoods cataglouge although that did pay for a new camera, mobile phone and a pair of trainers but im over 1k down on credit cards so not a big rise0
