    Welcome Karen! Good luck with the debtbusting. Getting that first figure is scary, but can also be a bit of a relief because you know that all being well, it will only go down from there. Good luck :)

    Welcome to you as well CupcakeLisa - there's no amount too small to join in here. To double the amount you have to pay is a great achievement so good luck! :)
