    Well done everyone, just thought I would catch up with how we are all doing, have another 0% card to transfer my balance to so hopefully everything will be paid up even quicker.

    Will check back in tomorrow with my extra payment..... Once I have worked out how much I have
  • Yeah!!! Another small but significant payment made....roll on next week. I'm starting to feel really good about this as my total gets bigger.
  • I've made about 5 extra payments this week, I hope thats ok? Since the challenge started i've paid £24 into the overdraft and £75 onto the credit card!! I feel so motivated from everyones posts! xx

    and another 62p

    you know when i just overpaid that ^ it felt rubbish, but updating my sig and seeing the £2 odd go to £3 odd felt so good, just goes to show every amount, no matter how little, really does help.
