Well done Eltee12 :T :TOk, just made my post payday payments bringing my new totals to...
103 - £2427/£4237
Not sure if/when i'll be back this month so want to wish everyone a fab christmas & congratulate everyone on their efforts! :j
Have a great Christmas yourselfWow this year feels as though its raced by.
When I started debt busting in September 2010, I owed £15,676.95. I felt like the walls were closing in on me, and all the bank wanted to do was lend me more money so I owed them plus interest instead of everybody else. Paying off my debt has been a long slog but my outstanding balance now stands at £240.84. I'm almost there! I can breathe again. I feel like I'm going into the new year a whole new woman.
Merry Christmas everybody. Here's to a fantastic 2013.

Hello All - number 27 calling in for the last time
Sorry I have not posted recently.
Well finally after 4 years all the debts are gone and almost half of the mortgage.:j
I am quite sad to be saying goodbye and good luck to everyone still on their journey. Don't give up - it is so worth it in the end!
Rather than get used to the money, we are going to keep up the same payments but now they will all go towards the mortgage. So I am moving over now to the Mortgage Free board!
Thank you and merry Christmas
My Life
Well done My Life :T Good luck with your mortgage free journey.Very exciting last minute addition to my maternity savings for this year - my godmother just sent us a cheque for £1,000 to put towards baby things. We don't actually need anything as I kept EVERYTHING from DS1; we might need to get a bed at some point so will keep some aside but for now... am going to add £1,000 to the savings! Woo hoo.
That's lovely of your Godmother Sarah, woo hoo indeed! :jI've not posted in a long time as my pc is broken.
I've paid off a further £1517 since my last post which brings me to
#41 £2632/£2200

Hi Jwil, hubby didnt get on too well, he has got thyroid cancer but hopefully it should just be a matter of removing it and then a bit later some radioactive treatment. Obviously until its removed in early Jan we wont know what grade it is......2012 has not been our best year.
Fortunately the debt paying IS going well!0 -
Jacci i am sorry to hear this ((hugs)) i will send positive healing vibes. Im glad the debt paying has kept your mind occupied. xxxI AM A MONEY MAGNET, THEY ARE MAKING MORE MONEY FOR ME AS WE SPEAK:pMIKES MOB, DFW NERD 1071, DFW LHS 132!MIRACLES HAPPEN I'VE SEEN IT WITH MY OWN EYES.
