Hi all made my extra payment today 14.04 which was from a survey and some from ebay sales.

Has there REALLY been no extra payments made today? I can't believe it!!!
Can I ask if anyone is in the 'lottery at work' trap? I paid £10 into it today knowing that by Christmas I might get £20(ish) back if I'm lucky. Nothing like the £104 I put into it each year........but there's always that 'what if' moment, where I think how bad I'd feel if we had a big win and I had dropped out of it. Can you tell me your thoughts?

I normally make my payment on a Tuesday but I'm overdrawn until I get paid tomorrow so I'll round the account down then.

A few of us used to play the lottery at work but like you said, we were paying so much in and didn't get a return at all one year. We decided to all make it a Christmas club instead. Every month on payday we put £10 in, at christmas we get an envelope with our money in and usually go out for a meal.

This year was Nando's so I only spent £10 and had an extra £100 for Christmas :T

Extra payment £290 :eek: to credit cards today.

It's pay day and this is the difference of what minimum payments used to be pre- 0% interest and paying a chunk off at Christmas and what minimum payments are now.

Off to update sig.

£20.82 today off hubby's credit card from an unexpected Quidco payment!!

This thread is keeping me so motivated, I can't believe i've nearly cleared a £785 CC balance since January, just another £230 to go and the CC will be empty and closed!
