    Had a bit of a family windfall of £2000 so that is going straight into my credit card. I have two credit cards and this means after this pay day I will have paid off the larger one and can start on the next. Both are 0% but want to get rid of this debt asap. So no treats for me with the windfall money, I get much more satisfaction putting it against my debt.

    My kitchen will soon be paid off!!! (just a shame my renovations went out of control in the first place!). However it is an old house and there were lots of unexpected problems along the way... Ah well....

    Good luck to everyone on here, keep going!

    I've rechecked the totals on my signature and it appears my maths skills have let me down somewhat!

    I've managed to make a reasonable sized payment this month of just over £102.

    Having recalculated what I still owe against what debt I started with, I'm currently at:

    103 - £1626/£3566

    I have these larger payments can continue for a while longer to take me down to just the one c/card!

    Although my signature says I have £500 to go on one of my cards, in actual fact it's £499.99. I just can't help myself by paying the extra penny here and there when it visibly gets me past another milestone. Does wonders for the morale boost! lol

It'll be another overpayment of £218 over the hols. I'll have a go at it anyway :cool:. So now £4,107.00/£10,000
