Well that's it, I've just made my last payment to my Virgin credit card. I can't quite believe I've done it and I've got spare cash left over. :j
It's been a hard year, I've not been able to do the things I wanted to, but it has been worth it. I never realised how my debt was affecting my moods but it hit me last christmas like a ton of bricks.:eek:
Now I'm ready for 2012, I have my spreadsheet sorted, a pot for my coins and a savings plan in order.:A
BRING IT ON!
