  • Hi all!

    A measly £36.00 to start 2012, but I get paid from my second job next week, so hope to top this up a bit. Won't really get cracking on this until end of Jan (next pay day). On the plus side, the CC is now under £1k, so if I get my head down, I should be able to get rid of this by April (target end date).

    Gonna be a busy year - trying to get everything paid off so we can start TTC . . . . I had better get a move on then!

    Good luck for 2012!

    Yes, we do, see below. I'm going to add it to the January total as the challenge officially runs in 2012, even though it's fine to start earlier. I did the same last year. Not bad though :T

    Well, I won't start the totalising properly until the end of Jan, but I thought you'd all like to know that in December we paid off a total of £11,767.80 + Eur 200 :T :T :j :j

    Well done everyone, great start!

    I'll add that total onto the January total next month.
