    Decided to take on Martins advise and look at the amount of interest I would be earning and compare it to the interest on my debts and there was a massive difference so chose to use my savings and make some massive payments.

    So I have paid my car insurance, paid my student load, and totally happy that I can now say I have paid for my car its alllllllllllllllllll mine now yahooooooo.

    My credit card will be having some much bigger payments now :j

    So my new update is now.....

    Am loving all the money saving going on. You are all doing really well. :D

    I managed a few good ebay sales and also added some of my savings so after all that and my regular monthly payment my new total is :

    #2 £6,241 / £7,500
    although it appears I am close to my target - things will slack off a bit again as I have car tax, annual horse vaccinations and my MOT coming up July, Aug and Sep. :o
